I was wondering if anyone knows of any software that supports XRemote
over a serial line?

To be more specific, I would like to display X apps, Xterms, . . .
from the Cisco terminal server (supports XRemote) that I am dialed in
through.  386BSD on my end, SunOS on the other.  I have found a couple
of Xremote packages on the net, but they don't seem to be what I am
looking for.  Am I just looking in all of the wrong places, or am I
the ONLY person who is looking for this?

I know that SLIP or PPP would be preferable, but I can't get that
capability turned on through the terminal server at this time.
Thanks.
