A simpler suggestion:
telnet to port 6000 of the windows machine from the linux server.
A connection should be established (whatever the X configuration is). If
no connection is established then something is wrong.
To see that a connection is established with the standard unix tellnet:
$ telent windows_machine 6000
Trying <IP OF THE WINDOWS MACHINE>...
Connected to <HOST NAME OF THE WINDOWS MACHINE.
Escape character is '^]'.
At this point a connection was established.
