XFree86 doesn't start

I'm getting difficulties to start an X server on CygWin
under WinNT.
I've installed XFree86 using the standard setup.exe installer.

Here is what I'm getting when I launch startxwin.sh

~$ startxwin.sh
+ export DISPLAY=LAINS-1:0.0
+
PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program
Files/Com
mon
Files/Clarify/bin:/cygdrive/c/orant/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32:/cygdrive
/c/WINNT:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/System32/WBEM:/cygdrive/e/orant/bin:/cygdrive/c:/cygd
rive/c/windows:/cygdrive/c/command:/cygdrive/c/Borland/Bde
:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home
/administrator/scripts:.
+ rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix
+ XWin
+ twm
+ xsetroot -solid aquamarine4

The process XWin seems to hang and, of course, when I kill
it, startx returns.

+ xterm -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black
-e /usr/bin/bash
+ exit
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X
server "LAINS-1:0.0"

 after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events
remaining.
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X

Is there anything wrong with my config? Any log file I
should check?
After several failures, I could manage to start XWin only
once (running XWin.exe directly also), but I can't get it to
work again, now that I have rebooted Windows.

Here is the version of the X11 packages I installed:
XFree86-base 4.2.0-1
XFree86-bin 4.2.0-1
XFree86-doc 4.2.0-1
XFree86-etc 4.2.0-1
