On the D-RATS side, you create a port of type AGWPE and give it the 
hostname or IP address of the machine running the client.

However, I would caution you to fully test your intended use case with 
this before promising it to anyone. I have not actually used D-RATS with 
the "real" AGWPE as it's (a) very old (b) very buggy and (c) doesn't run 
on my platform. I also haven't spent much time at all testing and 
working out the bugs with such a setup. As interest for this feature 
seems exceedingly low, I don't expect to apply much effort in the near 
future.
