[comp.sys.apollo] TTY Driver for Multibus COM-CTL Card?

mwf@pbhya.PacBell.COM (3W600O-Michael W. Frees) (01/21/89)

We are running Apollo's PCI8 product on DSP80A's and DSP90's to connect
8 PC's to each node.  This works pretty well for direct connections, but
is cumbersome for dialin access.  For dialin, all we really need is 
simple TTY or VT100 access.  SIOMONIT does this, but a DSP only has two
SIO ports.  Does anyone know of any existing software which will allow
the DSP's Multibus COM-CTL card to be used to connect 8 "dumb terminals"
or PC's running terminal emulation?  We've checked with our local sales
office, with the usual results (none).

Any help on locating or writing such a driver would be greatly appre-
ciated.
