I was told that you can connect two Amigas together using their serial ports,
and then connect one of those amigas to a modem using its second serial port,
and then using DNET connected to a SUN workstation via the modem, have both
computers sharing the modem connection have a separate tty.  So two people
can log into one workstation, each with their own amiga, sharing the same
modem if one of the Amigas has two serial ports.

Is that true?  I know it is confusing.  If so here is my question.  I just
saw a parallel port amiga to amiga communication program posted to
comp.binaries.amiga.  Now if the above works, can we have the two amigas
talking over their parallel ports and then one of the amigas connected to
the modem via its serial port?

Thanks for taking the time to decode what I've said here and I appreciate
the time it takes to reply via e-mail to my postings...
