Just a small note: that should be

I use putty on the Windows machine with X11 forwarding enabled at localhost:10.0, with the Cygwin Xserver running. When I try to run an X app, xclock for instance, I get:
Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0
I'm not totally sure on the numbers after the 'localhost:', they're just my best guesses.
Any ideas?
