I believe it's startxt that you want to edit. A different method:
1) Set up network connection
2) Run startxt on BL machine
3) Run:

DISPLAY="IP" xterm

on the machine with the xterm X client. Replace IP with the IP
address of the machine running startxt/BL, and replace xterm
with the X client that you want to run. For instance:

DISPLAY="192.168.0.2" icewm

Good luck.
David
