I apologize in advance if this is sent to the wrong groups or is
an FAQ.

I am setting up a classroom/conference room using Xterminals served
by a sun SPARCstation II.  This is just what we want for most
occassions; however, at times we will want to show output from DOS
graphics applications such as Harvard Graphics and Freelance Plus.
Assuming our PC is on the Ethernet (using FTP Software's PC TCP/IP and
PCNFS), is it possible to send the output to an xterm on each of the
Xterminals?  I don't expect that there is an easy solution to this.

email preferred, I will summarize to the net if there is interest.

Thanks,

Tom
