[comp.sys.next] can I plug a terminal into a NeXT?

kelley@dalcs.UUCP (Dan E. Kelley) (01/20/89)

I'm repeating a question I read here, but didn't see an
answer to:
	Q: Can you plug terminals into a NeXT, or is
	   NeXT a single-user machine?

Yes, you can.  Make sure that you have a getty running on the serial port
the terminal is hooked to; the installation is the same as for any 4.3 BSD
machine.  Mail me if you have more questions and I'll be glad to help...

Yes, you can plug 1 or 2 terminals into the serial ports of the machine.
