[comp.sys.amiga.datacomm] Null-Modem Amiga-IBM and Minix

I just hooked up a nul-modem between my Amiga 1000 and my IBM AT clone.
I was wondering if anybody has done this and used it for anything besides
file transfer?  Its neat to impress friends by letting them use and
amiga CLI on the IBM while you do something on the Amiga.  Is there any
programs that don't use windows besides the CLI commands and EDIT, that 
someone can run on the Amiga from the IBM?

Also I have to get minix for a class I am taking.  I want to get the Amiga
version if it will support logon from the serial port. Another words, 
can it allow two users to be on at the same time, one on the Amiga and
one on a terminal?

Anyone who has experimented with this let me know.
