X11 to Remote Desktop Protocol.

The host would be LM21.

The client could be Windows (as it's RDP after all).

                 RDP
   xrdp +--------------------+
        |                    |
       LM21               Windows (client)

More normally, RDP would be run between two Windows boxes, like this.

                 RDP
        +--------------------+
        |                    |
       Windows (host)     Windows (client)

There are obviously more solutions than this, for remoting into a PC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol

On a LAN, you might well have the network bandwidth to
not care about the protocol details. If you're remoting
into PCs on the Internet, the protocol used is a lot
more important (as you might not have enough upload
bandwidth to make for comfortable sessions).
