[comp.windows.x] i386: How to make a PC running as an X-terminal ?

hoepfner@usun01.UUCP (Andreas Hoepfner) (11/16/90)

 I would like to know how to make a PC connected to a 386/IX machine
 via ethernet running as an X terminal ?
 What terminalemulation is neccessary (Tectronics ? ) ?
 Or any other kind of special software ?

 X is running fine on the console, but when I type in 'startx' on my
 PC terminal (rlogin connection), the window is always on the console.

 I tried various setups of the server, but haven't a solution yet...

 Thanx for any help,

 :-) Andreas
