Preventing X server resets


I'm using XDMCP for my session, from where I run X applications on
various different servers.  If the machine I logged onto with XDMCP is
rebooted, or suffers network difficulties, the X server resets and I
loose my whole session.  I would prefer the X server and it's remaining
clients to continue running, so that I can just start a window manager
on a different box and carry on working.  Is there some way to prevent
this reset from happening?  I gave the -noreset option a try but it made
no difference.
