Please do use code tags when. A short explanation is above in the moderator comment I added to your previous post.

As said, I do not know Xming. You might have to check the error messages with Google to sort them out or maybe use X/Cygwin for example.

Is that prompt with the
Code:
bash-3.00$ xhost +85.254.xxx.xxx

your AIX box?? Or is it a third box, maybe a Linux box??
xhost has to be issued on the machine that is running the Xserver. In your case I thought, that is your Windows machine regarding the former description.

To make it clear:
  • Box A is your AIX box where the application is you want to start and use via X, let's say xclock
  • Box W is your Windows box, where that Xming Xserver software is running to display and interface the data being send from/to from your box A.
  • Box W needs a running X server which is your Xming. When it is started, you have to use something like xhost to allow remote Clients, which is in terms of X11 this Box A, so that it can send it's graphical data to display the xclock application in our little example to Box W.
    In short, Box W needs the xhost or a similar permission filter being issued, not Box A!
  • When permissions are set with xhost, you can export the DISPLAY on box A where the X application resides, which you want to execute.
  • Now you are ready to issue xclock on box A and it should be displayed on Box W.
