This is basically meaning that the X server on your Windows system is refusing to accept the X client as one of its clients. The X protocol has its own authorisation devices, which are based on the hostnames of the systems X-clients are allowed to connect from.
For a simple try if this is the case issue a
on the command line of your client, which will disable authentication completely. Then start the X client on the remote system again.
In the long run you will probably not want to disable authentication completely but only accept X connections from a few select remote systems. Depending on the X-Server you use there should be a configuration where you can enter one (or several) hostnames from which X clients will be accepted.
don't know if you solved this already but here's my input:
in putty under ssh, go to x11. click enable x11 forwarding.
enter this info:
next, launch the xming app.
go back to the putty window and enter your server info.
(ensure you're using SSH, unless default is changed, putty's default is telnet)
when terminal is open type these commands to confirm everything is working:

Hi Bakunin, thanks that thread helped me to understand more clearly the different concepts

reading other similar problem, I found out that it can be caused by TCP (port 6000) was being blocked, how can I handle this in AIX ?
Moreover I tried :

Please post the EXACT description of this. What does "xauth list" say when executed on the Windows machine? Where did you set the "DISPLAY"-variable? Windows-machine? AIX-machine? What exactly did you do to "add AIX to access control list"? Where did you do that? ....
This may sound petty, but fact is: i have seen many many problems where some "small, insignificant" omissions made all the difference between "not working" and "working".

Ports 6000-6063/udp and 6000-6063/tcp, to be precise. A problem with blocked ports arises only if there are firewalls between the client and the server. Yes, these ports need to be allowed, because the common default firewall rule is to block everything until explicitly allowed. (Otherwise you wouldn't need a firewall at all.)
It is possible to run a firewall and/or packet filter on AIX (IPSec, IPtables, ...), but this is unlikely. Most probably the firewall (if there is one) is a separate machine and you need the firewall admin to configure the rule that the relevant ports are unobstructed.
