I would like to use Xming to connect a server and managed to get it to work. I am now trying to get it to connect to a different server but i am not sure which X Window system is installed.
Probably none. You do not need an Xserver installed on your server, only on your client. An Xserver is a sort-of driver software for your graphics hardware and you need that only where you have such a hardware. XMing is such an Xserver software.
