I often work on a computer in a lab (Windows) and connect to the emacs
daemon running on my workstation (Linux). I have cygwin with ssh and
X on the lab machine and I just start an X server and do "ssh -X
user@workstation emacsclient ..." to get an emacs frame on the remote
machine. I needed to change the DPI of the cygwin X server to get the
fonts at a reasonable size, because cygwin's X was not detecting
properly; YMMV.
