I'm not 100% conversant in X-Windows, so I may be asking this 
incorrectly.... 

I have RedHat 8.0 at work. 

I'm using xdm ( I think ) so when I boot up ( or logout ) I get 
a graphical menu that lets me specify a userid and then asks for 
a password. 

Instead of a login on the localhost... I want to be able to specify 
a host on the network and be able to log onto that box. 

On the Sun boxes, you get a local login gui and you can select 
'options' and pick a host from that screen. You pick the host, 
and then you can login to that remote host. 

Thanks - jack
