If you absolutely, positively need XDMCP, I believe there's a way to do this 
with no physical X server, but I've never tried, because VNC or SSH tunneling 
are much better ways of doing this.  Last I checked (Red Hat 9) you could simply 
invoke startkde from your SSH session (with X tunneling enabled) and get a 
rootless KDE desktop on your Windows desktop running Exceed, though you'll want 
to disable all the graphical bells and whistles if you have a 
less-than-blazing-fast network connection to the server.

The default VNC service configuration gives you a minimal twm setup that 
performs very well over slow network connections, but you can change it if you 
like having a more featureful window manager or desktop environment.
