I'm using putty to connect to the server... I'm a newbie in the world of linux, what is linux box? and what is X?

"X" is the graphical desktop.
To start yours, use "init 5" from putty - that will put your server in run-level 5 (graphical desktop). It's a good chance you're still running in run-level 3 (type runlevel to see what level you're currently in)
To stop it, just type "init 3" to drop back to run-level 3.
To have your server come up in 5 permanently, edit the /etc/inittab file and change the "initdefault" line from 3 to 5. Just be damned careful when editing this file - it can cause a non-bootable system next time around!
