to use PC with VNC and start the OpenView there. we are going to take PC

Run the x0rfbserver system on your Solaris box. It will act like a normal
VNC server, except that it views and controls display :0 (the normal one
that the HP user sees). This server must be installed on the Solaris box.
Once that is done, any VNC viewer can watch. I believe that the VNC
servers (and thus the x0rfbserver) have options for disabling remote
keyboard and mouse, so that the VNC viewer people can only watch, not control.
I have not actually used the x0rfbserver system myself, so if you have a
problem, someone else on the list will have to help...
