allowing xlogin from remote server

["Richard E. Hawkins Esq." <hawk@eyry.econ.iastate.edu>]

I need to be able to run Xsessions rom remote xterminals while I'm away.

Reading the xdm docs and the Xaccess files, it looks like simply adding
 

  name.of.remote.display

to /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess should allow this, but it doesn't seem to; 

  X :1 -query remote.system

sprouts a background & cursor on the next vc, but the client gets rejected 
from the host machine.

However, on another (old, slow) ultrix machine, this gives me the login prompt.

I'd have sworn that I previously figured this out, but maybe that was only 
with an OSF machine for remote, and I thought that this was how I did it
