Author Gnome on Windows?

Is there a way to bring up Gnome on a windows machine. Telnet won't do
(obviously), but is there anything that allows this?

Do not multi-post. Make one post, ask one question, in one newsgroup. Repeat
until fully toasted.

Do you mean to run gnome on a Linux machine L and a Windows machine W
connected by a network? That's eay. Go to http://www.starnet.com/ and
download XWin32 (easy, has to be payed), or install Cygwin + XFree86
(harder but free). Start your X server, and run 'xhost +L'. Telnet/SSH to L
and type 'export DISPLAY=W:0' then start gnome there.
