Multiple Window managers in xstartup?

I'm faced with the following situation... I have to access some Solaris
boxen
and Linux boxen, but my home directory is in shared storage that is
nfs-mounted to them all... So regardless of which server I'm on, I have the
same .vnc directory, with one xstartup file. I figured that I could get
around
this by using a simple conditional in the xstartup to figure out if it was
on
a Solaris box or Linux box. My Linux boxen seem to work fine, but trying to
use dtwm for my Solaris boxen doesn't seem to work. I just get the rootweave
desktop. Here is my xstartup file:
 
#!/bin/sh
os=`uname -s`
 
# Red Hat Linux VNC session startup script
 
if [ "$os" -eq "Linux" ]
then
   exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
   gnome-session
elif [ "$os" -eq "SunOS" ]
then
   exec /usrs/bkeefer/.vnc/xinitrc
   xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
 
   DTXSERVERLOCATION="remote"
   SESIONTYPE="altDt"
   SDT_ALT_SESSION="/usr/dt/bin/dtsession"
   SDT_ALT_HELLO="/usr/dt/bin/dthello &"
 
   export DTXSERVERLOCATION SESIONTYPE SDT_ALT_SESSION SDT_ALT_HELLO
 
   /usr/dt/bin/Xsession
 
else
   fvwm
fi

 
Has anyone been able to make two or more window managers peacefully co-exist
in the xstartup file? Or do your fresh eyes see something that I'm just
overlooking? Just asking
