The SparcStation LX does have a DB-25 serial port on it. It's the
2 port combination version. I hooked mine up to a VT520 using a DEC
H8571-E DB25-MMJ adaptor.
BTW, I just noticed, my VT520 can have up to 4 sessions, but it
has only 3 serial lines. I assume it could use the printer port for the
4th session?
