Hola tocayo,

It is not particularly clear what you did from your description, but
if I understood correctly, you are trying to have graphical access to
a Windows box from a Linux box using SSH, am I correct?

This is not possible with the tools you are using. That is, it is
*entirely possible* to have graphical access to a Linux box from
Windows by using Cygwin's OpenSSH port *and* Cygwin/X. To do it in the
other direction you need a different set of tools, namely VNC or
similar. If so, it is off-topic for the list, but you can always
search for TightVNC in SourceForge :-).
