Making X-terminals out of Sun Workstations.

I am setting up a training session, and would like to convert several
Solaris 2.6 and 8 Sun workstations running CDE, into X-terminals.

I know I can have the users select "Option -> Remote Login -> ....",
but this means they have to search from a log list of candidates; or
type in a long hostname. It would also mean, a potential, unequal
distribution of clients amoungst the servers.

I'm looking for something simple, and easy to backout. Preferably, a
tweak in /etc/dt/config that has dtlogin bypass the remote login query,
and provide a login prompt to a specific server.

The /etc/dt/config files seam to have plenty of options for starting the
Xserver, or configing access to it, but nothing on having the Xserver
binding to a specific host.
