If your looking to run to display remote X programs on a Win95/NT desktopyou
can purchase programs like Hummingbird's eXceed or White Pines product
( can't remmember its name ). These applications allow you to open X client's
like
and xterm or xcalc or whatever on your Win95 computer.

They allow you to run a remote shell on the Unix machine and set the DISPLAY
environment variable to you Win95 machine. eXceed allows you to use either
a single window mode or multiple window mode. With multiple windows you
can have PC and UNIX applications running in separate windows you can easily
switch between. Win95/NT manages the windows so they look and feel like Windows

With single window mode you can run your remote Unix manager, like openwin,
mwm,
twm, or whatever and let it manage your Unix-desktop.

I hope this is the kind of info ou were looking for.
