In response the post below:

I just wanted to say that it's possible to run XWin.exe as a service on Windows NT/2K/2K3 using SRVANY.exe and properly configuring the Xn.hosts file.
We ran into a situation with an Oracle Reports service that a customer of ours was using that needed to use the fonts supplied from an XServer running on Windows (using Microsoft TTF fonts). The solution they were using was not a very good one but, nonetheless, we were able to get it working in order to fulfill their needs.
Just something to pass along.
Thanks,
John Peery
