A simpler suggestion:

telnet to port 6000 of the windows machine from the linux server.

A connection should be established (whatever the X configuration is). If
no connection is established then something is wrong.

To see that a connection is established with the standard unix tellnet:

$ telent windows_machine 6000
Trying <IP OF THE WINDOWS MACHINE>...
Connected to <HOST NAME OF THE WINDOWS MACHINE.
Escape character is '^]'.

At this point a connection was established.
