Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I'm trying to use a RH 8.0
box as an X terminal.  I know there are several projects afoot for doing
such a thing, but none of them meet my needs.  Further, this should be
doable with a stock RH install.

The situation is this: I've got a customer with two existing SCO
Openswerver systems who wants X terminals.  The SCO box is at a remote
site (across the country, actually) so I'd like to avoid making any
changes to it (try talking long distance to someone without any
technical knowledge into setting up DHCP using vi on SCO sometime).  I'd
like to just ship him the RH box and be done with it.

So, changes to the SCO box are plain out.  The plan I have is to set the
Linux X terminal up to respond to "X -indirect localhost" calls by
providing a gdmchooser window.

The problem is that when it boots up, I'd like it to display gdmchooser
rather than the gdm login screen (so he can select between the two SCO
hosts).  I've tinkered around with /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf to no avail.
Google spits up reams of info, none of which seem to work.

Any suggestions?
