[comp.windows.x] XDMCP and Sun 3/50

Hi everyone,

Here in our computer science department we have several Sun 3/50s that I
have configured to run as X terminals (basically by stripping the kernels
and devoting the entire operating system to running the X server).  Anyhow,
I want to set them up to run xdm, but I need a program that will send the
proper XDMCP requests to the server host, and I can't seem to find one.
Does anyone have something like this, or know where I can find it, before
I start reinventing the wheel by writing my own?  Theoretically it would
just run from the rc script.  I do have xdm running without XDMCP, but it's
a pain since it needs to be manually restarted whenever someone reboots one
of the 3/50s.

Thanks for any help.
