Take a look at:

My recollection of the Windows version (dating back to 1.0, which was free,
as the Mac version remains) is that it was somewhat dodgy (not a full X11R6
implementation, some fonts were screwy, etc) but it worked.

If bandwidth isn't a concern, you might be better off running the VNC X
server on the remote machine and a VNC client on your Mac.
