Does xming -from work?

My only reason for pursuing XDMCP was to improve network performance, 
and Cygwin shows this is not going to happen.

But for the benefit of the Xming project, -from apparently does not work.

My IP address is not fixed.

The following worked (from cygwin):
$ Xwin -query 192.61.248.23 -nodecoration -lesspointer -from 
172.17.4.209 -notrayicon -logverbose 3


Same results with xming from source forge

C:\Program Files\Xming>Xming -query 192.61.248.23 -nodecoration 
-lesspointer -from 172.17.4.209 -notrayicon -logverbose 3
