I get the above responses whether my Windows firewall is on or off.
Also,
How do know which which ports are open on a Windows PC?
I need ports 177/UDP and 6000-6006/TCP open for xdmcp -query. (Or so I
understand. I can't find any clear instructions on this.)

Thanks for hanging in there and trying your best to help identify my

If I ever find the solution I will shout it from the mountain top!
I'd like to try cygwin-x on another Windows PC with less software installed

Dirk,
Thanks for the recommendation. I gave it a try. Still no luck.

I installed X-Win32 (a commercial X-server) on my Windows PC. Unlike

You've read this, yes?
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-xdmcp-query
Specifically, check your Windows firewall config. You will need to
explicitly open the X11 port, as there is, IIUC, no outgoing packet from that
port.

Yes, I've read the information at the link you provided. It says to open port
177/UDP and ports 6000-6005(TCP). But it doesn't say whether that applies to
the PC where the X-server is running, or just the xdmcp host. I'm 99% sure
I've got those ports open on my CentOS host (the xdmcp server).
I've found an article on the internet that explains
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/842242 how to open ports in Windows.
I'll try it tomorrow even though I don't know if it's necessary.

If you are confident that you turned the Windows firewall off and you
have no other firewalls

I completely disabled my Windows firewall (I think) but still no joy.
