Erica,
Unless your host is named XDMP, then you aren't properly specifying the
host to connect to.
I also see from your XWin.log that you might be trying to connect to
dummy_entry:0. That isn't going to work either.
Please look at the following page in the User's Guide:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-remote-session.html
Also, have a look at /usr/XFree86/bin/startxdmcp.bat. That file has
several examples of how to connect to a remote machine. In addition, it
can be modified to work for your system by simply changing the line near
the top that reads:
SET REMOTE_HOST=10.0.0.1
If your host was named 'foo', then you would change this to:
SET REMOTE_HOST=foo
Hope that helps,
Harold
