I am running putty from Windows. I do have X11 forwarding enabled. But I still get 'could not open display' I though perhaps I needed to install Xming, but I don't have admin rights on the Windows box, so I couldn't do that.
yes, you need an X server, like xming, to use X11.
I believe you can run xming without installing it, get the zip version, or the 'portable' version.
