I am using MobaXterm on windows to access the server. Can it do the same thing as putty? If so then I need advise on how to explore instead of installing a new program!

No installation is required for PuTTY (it is a very small program that you run directly). http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~s.../download.html
You would want to use X11 only if a reliable (good, speed-wise) internet connection is available.

MobaXterm appears to include some form of X11 so you may be able to use that program (http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/documentation.html#2_3_5).

I have succeeded in configuring putty, however when I launch Xming, I do not an X-shaped icon on the right corner of your Windows taskbar (bottom of the Screen) as stated in the manual and when I type, this happens:
yyyy$ xclock &

> [yyyy ~]$ Error: Can't open display:
what is the problem?\

Sounds like you were not able to install X-ming application correctly (or it is not running, check in your windows task manager).
What do you see when you type this command in terminal on server (remove the actual name of the server when posting output/replace with xxx)?
Code:$ echo $DISPLAY

That means you were not able to configure PuTTY correctly. If you did do the "Enable X11 forwarding" on PuTTY you generally have to save the settings. Log out and log back in to the server to see the result of command above. Give that a try.
