Use the "clientDecoration" setting for MWM in the .Xdefaults file.
the following lines should work:

	mwm*xbiff*clientDecoration: none
	mwm*xclock*clientDecoration: none

Sorry, thats the way they work.  If anybody else has any ideas, please
inform the net.

aixterm -e rlogin <machine>   # ???

or

xhost + <machine>
rsh <machine> "xterm -display <your_machine>:0"

(this assumes that you have a .rhosts file on the remote machine that 
allows rsh to work.)
