No problem.  This evening, I grabbed another ethernet cable and
hooked up your W20-net link; it seems to be fine.

This took a bit longer.  After making a mess of adapters and cables,
trying many things that didn't work, and consulting with Jonathon, I
asked Jared to reboot limekiller so that it would come up without a
keyboard.  And after some more fiddling:

charon.mit.edu# kermit -l /dev/term/b -b 9600 -c
Connecting to /dev/term/b, speed 9600.
The escape character is Ctrl-\ (ASCII 28, FS)
Type the escape character followed by C to get back,
or followed by ? to see other options.


NetBSD/sparc64 (limekiller.mit.edu) (console)

login:

NetBSD/sparc64 (limekiller.mit.edu) (console)

login:
(Back at charon.mit.edu)
charon.mit.edu#

I reverted charon's motd.  Enjoy!

Mitch
