Using X-terminals with PC-UNIX. Any comments?

[Tim Holt]

   Has anybody tried running X on their 386-UNIX (flavor unspecified) in
concert with several X-windows terminals (via TCP/IP or Graph-On Serial(?)).
These terminals could be real, dedicated X terminals, or low end PCs (ie.,
286 box) running some X package.  Now I'm not looking to let a bunch of
users run X off one 386, but rather I'm interested in using the X terminals
for "passive" display screens for showing data from a data acquisition
system.  That means I don't need to have super performance, as there won't
be users moving windows around, displaying bit maps, scrolling, etc.  All
I need to do is update fairly simple displays every 30-60 seconds.

   Any comments on driving X terminals off a 386/UNIX box?  I'll 
summarize if the responce warrents.
