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.

And see if this opens a window on your screen. If everything works you can put the line with the DISPLAY variable setting into your profile or your shells rc-file (for you: kind of AUTOEXEC.BAT-analogon on UNIX) so that you do not have to enter the line for every new session.

XInstallColormap(3X11) MIT X11R4 XInstallColormap(3X11)Name
XInstallColormap, XUninstallColormap, XListInstalledColormaps - control colormaps
Syntax
XInstallColormap(display, colormap)
Display *display;
Colormap colormap;
XUninstallColormap(display, colormap)
Display *display;
Colormap colormap;
Colormap *XListInstalledColormaps(display, w, num_return)
Display *display;

int *num_return;
Arguments
colormap Specifies the colormap.
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
num_return
Returns the number of currently installed colormaps.
w Specifies the window that determines the screen.
Description
The function installs the specified colormap for its associated screen. All windows associated with this colormap immediately display with
true colors. You associated the windows with this colormap when you created them by calling or
If the specified colormap is not already an installed colormap, the X server generates a event on each window that has that colormap. In
addition, for every other colormap that is installed as a result of a call to the X server generates a event on each window that has that
colormap.
can generate a error.
The function removes the specified colormap from the required list for its screen. As a result, the specified colormap might be unin-
stalled, and the X server might implicitly install or uninstall additional colormaps. Which colormaps get installed or uninstalled is
server-dependent except that the required list must remain installed.
If the specified colormap becomes uninstalled, the X server generates a event on each window that has that colormap. In addition, for
every other colormap that is installed or uninstalled as a result of a call to the X server generates a event on each window that has that
colormap.

The function returns a list of the currently installed colormaps for the screen of the specified window. The order of the colormaps in the
