Font server?

Um... how would one go about setting up a [Linux X Winders] font server? This would be on Ubuntu (Hoary), if changes things too much.

Optionally (preferably), does anyone know how to start Cygwin's XFree86 with a local font path specified with the "fp" option? It has to not rely on the registry keys Cygwin uses by default.

And because I know someone will ask, I'm trying to cut Cygwin down to the bare-minimum which will still login (through XDMCP) to my Ubuntu server. Right now it's at 47MB, with more stripping available, I'm sure, but I'm stuck on getting it to load the appropriate fonts, so that doesn't do me much good.
