Well, I got xdm working with Openwindows. What follows my .sig is a
tarred, compressed, and uuencoded version of my scripts, etc, that xdm
uses to make this work. xnewsdm is a hard link to xdm - it's so I can have
one running vanilla X and the other running XNeWS and send SIGHUPS to the
appropriate one to restart it's server.

I posted this to alt.sys.sun a while back, but I realise a fair number of
people dont get the alt.* groups. Sorry for the delay in posting here :-(
