Some you might remember the desktop G3 I got awhile ago. Here's the setup:

1.) Desktop G3 with OS 10.2 and the usual printer/modem serial ports

2.) An Apple IIgs with the same serial ports

3.) An Apple StyleWriter cable (or something similar)

What I want to do is use the IIgs as a dumb terminal to access the G3. I think on the G3 side this is done using getty and setting some configuration files, but I'm not sure where to start. Does anyone know?
