Cygwin/X - cannot display

I'm having difficulties using X apps from the Fedora box on my Windows
desktop. When I load Cygwin/X, start an SSH connected to the Fedora box and
type "xchat", I see "Cannot access display". I thought it might be a firewall
issue, so I disabled firewalls on both boxes but got no improvement. I
thought it might be an X issue on Fedora, but when I boot the Windows box
using Knoppix, I can run X apps via SSH.
So, does anyone know what tweak needs to be made to Cygwin/X to get it to work
with Fedora through SSH?
Thanks.
