It's still X, I think we have communication problems here..
The server needs to run someform of display manager, xdm, kdm, r gdm are

The client needs to query the server, this is done via -query hostname/ip
With XFree86. You'll have to check your manuals for other software cause i
only use Xfree86.
Are clearer now?
