That would be the job of remote X logins Read up on XDMCP. I use it to access my OBSD box from my windows machine across the room using X-Windows. Although it does not allow multiple graphical logins from one machibe, you can have multiple graphical logings to one server from many clients, Kinda like a Windows Thin Client (whitch is itself modeled on XDMCP to an extent).
