hosers-talk: RS/6000 console

[Tom Plagge <tplagge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In addition to the old AS/400 I have sitting around in my room at home,
I now have an RS/6000 running some old version of AIX.  It has a Power
processor (not a PowerPC, but close) and a bunch of serial ports on the
back; with my official IBM terminal, I can get an AIX login simply
by plugging into one of them.  

I'm at school now, though, and the terminal is at home.  I want to use
the serial port on my PC.  I gather from Google that the IBM serial 
setup is sort of braindead, using some sort of nonstandard pinouts, but 
I thought maybe one of you (Jeff?) might know how to deal with it.
Anybody?
