iMac slot-loader as a video display for a G4 tower?

Can I use my iMac slot-loader (OS 9,2,2,) as a video display for a G4 tower? I have a redundant model of each and I'd like to drum them into use. How could I set it up? Thanks

iMac, Mac OS 9.2.x

Look for VNC and Remote Desktop solutions. You will need to connect an actual VGA display to your G4 to set each one up. Firewire over IP is a solution that will allow you to network machines at faster than 10/100 ethernet found on iMac G3s. Otherwise any advantage of the speed of the G4 will be lost. Buying an LCD for your towers would probably be more of a space saver.
