Check the XDMCP Linux how-to to get yourself started.  I've tried 
unsuccessfully to get a workstation to boot to a chooser, then give me

 Mandrake's config files are a mess; they keep changing locations and 
some settings won't work.

There's also an X terminal how-to out there that's pretty useful.
