What I want to know is how to make the SUN workstation be a client of the PC, so that I can use the SUN's big display to show the PC's X window. For example, I can run FreeBSD's Netscape on the SUN display by set the SUN to be a client of FreeBSD's X window.

You wish make Sun not _client_ but _server_ (X Server) for FreeBSD programs.
If you have rsh enabled on your FreeBSD then just login to Sun wks, and 
from xterm (cmdtool etc.) run "xon freebsd-host-name command"
If you don't have rsh enable on FreeBSD then go to
