Their is an excellent client from Univeristy of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
It was written by Steve Dorner (s-dorner@uiuc.edu). We looked at clients by
Stanford, NASA, Michigan, and others and found this to be the best. It is 
very flexible in setup preferences and is easy to customize to you environment

It's available by anonymous FTP from uiuc.
