Thanks! I tweaked the /etc/kdm/Xaccess file to allow all hosts, then my PII
could not resolve the hostname, so I added a line to my /etc/hosts file to fix
this as well. Now I get remote X on the 486 with 8M ram and 130M Hard drive!
KEWL!

The only problem now is that I only have ONE ISA Ethernet card between the
X-Term PC and my gateway : (. I'll have to fix that before I go showing off
this setup at my daughters school.
