If you are using putty, you are probably displaying back to a windows machine. In this case you would need an X server running on the windows machine such as Exceed. Exceed costs money, however there are free X servers for windows out there. When you have an X server running on display 0, an nmap of the machine will show port 6000 open. This is needed for display back. The VNC option is probably more viable. You will want to make sure that you have the package vnc-server loaded on your Linux box and that you have vnc-server turned on in system-config-servers. Also edit /etc/sysconfig/vncservers to activate a session. There are instructions as comments in the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers file. It is possible to look at the displayed console via vnc. That is, the view you would see sitting in front of the machine. This facility has degraded since FC4. It is still usable, but tends to trash the screen.
