xming for gnucash

i set up xming to use gnucash remotely from a windows machine. the xlaunch file linked by the desktop icon has <xlaunch xmlns="http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes" xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" schemalocation="http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes XLaunch.xsd" windowmode="MultiWindow" clientmode="StartProgram" program="gnucash" clientstart="PuTTY" passwordstart="true" remotehost="10.0.0.6" remoteuser="linuxuser" display="0" clipboard="true"> the user is prompted for the password (to ssh) and it starts gnucash on the server. substitute gnucash for any other server program you frequently want to use on a windows client.
