Thanks for the idea, however when I try to launch the command as you
suggest I end up with a constantly relaunching X11.app appearing in
the dock. The icon appears then goes away again, constantly, until I
Ctrl-C the Xephyr command in Terminal then the X11 icon appears in
the dock and stays there. Watching a process output I see X11
restarting every few seconds with a new PID
Any thoughts?

This is a known issue that no one else on this list will comment on

will even comment on this issue and I'm not an X developer, I have
absolutely no idea why this is happening.
I haven't commented on it yet because I have not yet set up an
XDMCP setup I can play with. However, as a workaround, have you
tried Xephyr? You should be able to to download Xephyr from my
site (http://people.freedesktop.org/~bbyer/x11app/). Xephyr lets
you run a "virtual" X server within a window. I would imagine you
could run "Xephyr -fullscreen -query -once (mylinuxserverIP)" from
Terminal.app, which would then cause X11.app to run, and run Xephyr
as a client. An advantage of this would be that you could drag
this "fullscreen window" to one of your Spaces, and be able to
switch back and forth easily.
