When connecting to the Linux Application Servers via a PC running Windows and want to utilize a graphical interface, the PC will need to interace with the server through the X-windows system, forwarding the display from the server to the PC.  Software (X server) must be installed and be running on a PC to make this work, alongside an SSH client (PuTTY).

PuTTy can be downloaded from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
Xming can be downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=156984&filename=Xming-6-9-0-31-setup.exe

Once PuTTy and Xming have been downloaded to the PC, install according to their respective instructions.
