To get monitor details,

You can simply getting new CDE window into the monitor as,

In server:

# export DISPLAY=:0.0

Start x windows sessions in background in new machine. Then, Start application there in server.

# setmon /dev/crt

Is the one you want. You should get a list of display settings (resolution/refresh rate) to choose from. You could try each in turn to see if any of them work.
