Linda,

The ideal situation would be that your client system is also a UNIX system. Since it's not you will not special software to emulate an X-server on your windows PC's, e.g. Reflection X.

There are several free Xwindows servers for Windows on the web, some very light that should do the trick intead of using the non-free and heavier Reflection.

Check with your Sys. Admin. for help on how to setup the server side, but teh actions to do will be:
- the Xwindows server needs to be started on PC
- a telnet still needs to be done to the server
- an export of the display has to be done to the IP address of the PC from the telnet session - tricky if the PC uses DHCP (IP keeps changing) or the user can work on another PCs
- then the bx6.1 is started

(this can be fully automated thru a batch file on the PC and the .profile of the user that does the display export and runs the bx6.1)
