Yes, you can install Linux X terminals. It's easier to setup than using
Exceed on Windows.
On the Linux box, you can grant a host, say 'myhost.mylan.com', permission
to use it's display with:
xhost +myhost.mylan.com
Then login to the Sun box and tell it to use the Linux machine's display:
DISPLAY=linuxbox.mylan.com:0.0
Then run an application:
xterm
.... you can, of course, script these things, put icons on the desktop for
it, secure it with SSH, and all sort of other things.

Hope someone knows the answer here:::
Currently:
I have a couple of Sun servers that manage, monitor etc. a lot of equip
in my company. All desktops (Windows boxes) run Hummingbird Exceed to
xclient into the sun boxes to run certain monitoring X apps etc. No
problem.
What I want:
Putting some linux boxes around the office but need to be able to run
those X apps that are on the sun boxes on the linux desktops like we can
already do on the windows desktops using exceed.
Is this possible? If so, can they be run in a terminal within X or do I
have to open this from a text screen? (prefer to be at a X desktop and
just call a term window or something of that nature. Can someone point
me in the right direction???
Thank you very much in advance.
