Hi to all,
I am having a problem connecting a VT240 terminal (DEC) to
a NeXTStation Turbo. I have a null modem cable mididin 8 to
db25 (according to the sys sdm manual and the pinout of the 
terminal). I've edited the ttys file and 'kill'ed -HUP init.
I do not get a thing on the terminal. Can anybody help?
If you need more info, just email me.
Thanks in advance

Gil
