[PLUG] Any Win2000 based X server can go through firewall?

[Vidyut Samanta (a.k.a vids)]

The  development version of putty supports x forwarding.
You can get it from :
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
Make sure you get the development version and not the "latest release"
The "latest release" doesn't support it yet. Of-course you also 
need a xserver running like PC-Xware.
