Help. I am trying to set up a demonstration where I can simultaneously
display output on multiple SUN SPARCworkstations which are all connected on
a network. I have no problem displaying output (GRASS Graphics Monitor) on
a single remote workstation by using the setenv DISPLAY variable. I need,
however, to simultaneously display the same GRASS Graphics Monitor information
on multiple workstation monitors.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.

It is possible to use a signal splitter to send one machine's output to
several other machines. The receiving machines can't do anything to the
display being sent to their machine, they can only observe what the one
sending machine is doing. The signal splitter is a set of cables that you
plug from your machine to a box which then splits into several (6 I think)
output cables that you plug directly into the receiving machine monitors.
I don't know offhand where you can obtain one of these splitters.
