    I guess that if you need more than just a remote console then you're
    referring to an X based window display?

    Alternative 1

    Just use XDMCP via the CDE login prompt to remotely login to the other
    Solaris machines on the network (assuming that they're networked of
    course). Basically use one Sun box as an X head for all machines
    (including the one that the mouse and keyboard are hooked up to).

    Alternative 2

    Run the X-server on one machine with the mouse/keyboard and get the
    other machines to establish remote X client connections over the network
    (once again assuming that the machines are networked).
