Sounds like you have a firewall blocking port 6000.

Actually, this looks fine.  Given that you got further with your attempt
above, I'm assuming that the original complaint was related to the setting
of DISPLAY before.  If you were missing a DLL here, 'cygcheck' would
complain about the one(s) it wanted but couldn't find.
