Thanks Nirmalya and Steiner for your help.
Do I need to do any installation on UNIX server? I assume not.
When I start cygwin from my PC I get the prompt : bash-3.00$.
pwd gives : /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin
i tried startx but it gave error : command not found
/usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh : bad interpreter. no such file
i tried xhost <ipofunixserver> : command not found
Maybe
When you install cygwin, make sure you install the xwindows options. Then
from cygwin run /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh Then type xhost ip address of
your oracle server. From your oracle server export DISPLAY=your pc address.
