Connecting to another X Server with WDM



Hi folks,

I recently talked the guys at work into letting me install debian on my
computer there. It's a pretty crappy PC (P100 with 40M of RAM and a 1M
VGA Card), but I mainly use it for netscape and connecing to an NT
Terminal Server with Citrix (yuck!).

Anyway, I'm obviously running a local X Server on my machine, which I
log into using WDM. Sometimes, however, I want to connect to one of the
other Sun boxen and run X off them, which I figure I should be able to
do (like an X Terminal).

My question is, how? With the X Terminals we have, there is a chooser
app to select the system to log into. I've read the WDM docs, and I
can't seem to find a setting to let me choose my machine or another on
the local network.

Does anyone know how I might do this, of have suggestions as to where I
could look? I'd be prepared to change back to XDM, or even GDM, if it
can't be done in WDM.

Cheers,

damon
