Minor corrections:
the program running on your PC is the X-Server, NOT the client. The client
program is the one running on the remote machine.
Addition:
Under OS/2, IBM has produced TCP/IP for OS/2 which includes (at minor extra
cost) an NFS module, and an X-Server called PMX. I use PMX and am quite happy
with it.
OS/2 with TCP/IP and Netware requestor for OS/2 provides all of the
connectivity I could possibly want, including allowing my PC to become an
Internet node in its own right - send/receive mail directly, FTP to and from
the OS/2 machine, mount drives from remote systems, telnet directly from hte
OS/2 prompt and still run DOS programs simultaneously. Highly recommended!
