Interesting.  I have some terminal servers---8 serial connections and an 
ethernet connection, or whatever.  Normally, to connect several serial 
lines to one or more systems over the network.  But they can apparently 
be used in "reverse"?

I have really old terminal servers---20 years or so.  Would they work?
