What do I need to do to get the chooser to come up?
Do you mean that you are running xdm on the supposed-to-be xterm? You shouldn't do that in your case. The only things you need are: - xdm with the above config on the computer that is supposed to run the programs (the server) - an X server on the computer with the display So if you want to set up an X treminal, have it run something like /usr/bin/X11/X -indirect <ip_of_server> or /usr/bin/X11/X -query <ip_of_server> at boot time. The first line tries to get the chooser from the server, the second directly opens a connection to the server. Do 'man Xserver' for more options you might like.
