149.0. "Connect Nixdorf terminals to Ultrix systems?" by POOL09::MBOEING (Born to be Waldi) Mon Oct 12 1992 12:50

    Hi!
    
    One of our customers wants to migrate his Nixdorf systems (8869B,
    8860/M160, 8860/M4 & NCN) to Unix. 
    
    A requirement is that he can continue using his Nixdorf terminals 
    (BA80, 9766M) and printers (ND11 with SAS interface) with the ULtrix 
    systems. At least during a migration phase. 
    
    He also wants to use his IHSS cabling.
    
    I don't know what a 9766M terminal is. Is it character or block mode?
    What is the interface? RS232, IBM like? 
    
    What is a SAS interface? 
    
    What type of cabling is IHSS? Koax, STP, UTP an IBM Type what-so-ever?
    
    Could you please help me with the above questions/provide pointers?
    
    Thanks for your help,

Try to contact Michael Hofmann @NBO  DTN 895-6174 
	    (or Bernhard Pluhatsch @NBO DTN 895-6167)

He was involved in porting Nixdorf environment to UNIX and will do this 
furtheron in special projects. At least he could give you some hints.
