The protocol between the Sun Ray server and the Sun Ray unit
always uses a 24-bit depth.  There's no way to change that.

You didn't say what applications you're using on the desktop.  If
you're using uttsc/rdesktop to talk to Windows then you can turn
down the colour depth on that connection, and that should let the
Sun Ray protocol do better compression than it would be able to
do if the pixels painted by Windows were using the full 24-bit
palette.

If you're using the Xsun X server then you can use 'utxconfig'
to tell it to offer an 8-bit PseudoColor visual alongside the usual
24-bit DirectColor visual, but 8-bit is very limiting.  The 8-bit
visual is not supported by the Xnewt X server, that's 24-bit only.
