Cygwin/X over a VPN connection in VMWare guest WinXP


I setup Cygwin/X in a VMWare guest WinXP.  When I'm in office, I can use
xterm to connect to a remote Unix host.  When I'm at home, I use VPN to
connect to the office inside VM.  In that case, xterm cannot connect to the
remote host and prints the following error:

xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s

In VM, I can telnet to the remote host and I can ping the VMWare client IP
from the remote Unix host.  Any idea?
