I'll be glad to share full details of my solution, if you like.

Thanks for posting the solution. We may be implementing this for a client.

    I was finally able to resolve this.  I found a flag for Xnest that I
    missed yesterday:
    -once   Terminate server after one session

    So here's what my complete call to Xnest looks like:
    /usr/openwin/bin/Xnest :$GENERATED_DISPLAY -pn -geometry
    $GENERATED_GEOMETRY -once -query $HOST

    This call is wrapped in a script that generates the indicated values
    for display and geometry, and this script is called from the
    utsplash script from the CAM chooser script set.

    So while the CAM chooser script is functional, it'd be nice to have
    something that was a bit more customizable as far as appearance
    goes. What other solutions are people using that they'd like to share?

        Small correction/addition...

        The Windows desktop does not return to the chooser until the
        user clicks on the Cancel button in the Windows login dialog.
         I'd settle for this on the Linux side, but the Disconnect
        button on the gdm greeter does not do this as I would expect.

        Still looking for a better idea...

            Greetings,

            I realize this is not necessarily a SunRay question, but I
            was hoping somebody here has already solved this problem.
             I'm using a session chooser (combination of the CAM chooser
            script and the kiosk generic session) to give users the
            choice between a WTS session (using uttsc) and a Linux
            desktop session (XDMCP via Xnest).  What I'm stuck on is
            that when the user ends their Linux desktop session, they
            are returned to the gdm greeter (login screen on the remote
            Linux server) and not to the chooser dialog.  I've been
            looking for a way to configure the server to break the
            connection if the session ends but am coming up empty.  If
            anybody else who is already doing this (XDMCP to a remote
            host) can help me out, I'd appreciate it.

            Thanks.
            Seth
