Trouble with Open flow tutorial-xterm display error and not in the sudoers file error

I am trying to do this open flow tutorial and I am completely new to networking and systems. I am a college student and I need help with this. I have finished a part of the tutorial (http://www.openflow.org/wk/index.php/OpenFlow_Tutorial) and I am able to get the "ssh -X mininet@ipaddress" command working. If i type xterm next, it is giving me a display is not set error but when I open the terminal again and just type xterm without typing the ssh -X thing, it is opening a new window for xterm. I am confused. Is that what it is supposed to do? The next part of the tutorial asks me to type "sudo mn --topo single,3 --mac --switch ovsk --controller remote" in my ssh terminal and this is what happened when i tried it.
