Okay it is quite straight-forward. With putty, I ssh'd to 192.168.11.150 and it gave me the login prompt. It could not log me in because for root, there was no password. So I set a password and now I access colinux using putty. Can someone tell me how do I remove the X stuff, from both windows and linux side?
