[comp.sys.hp] How can I connect PC to 3000/922 via network?

mathmyka@cosmo.UUCP (Mathias Myka) (09/21/90)

I want to connect a Macintosh II, equipped with an Ethernet
port, to our HP3000/922LX. The terminal software I use on the
Mac is HP's AdvanceLink/Mac (a.k.a. Tymlabs Color Session).
The AdvanceLink manual says that NS/3000 is necessary to
accomplish this, while our HP service technician saythat it
should be possible without NS/3000.
Could anyone tell me what hardware/software components and
configuration settings are necessary to make this connection ?

Thanks in advance,

As I know you would need NS/3000 to connect anything thru Ethernet
but AdvLink allows you to connect thru an RS-232 port emulating an
HP terminal.
