Okay all you happy Microport 2.2 Users.  Here's another wonderful feature.
When having an RS-232 link between two computers, be careful not to have
two competing logins, else the system may (and probably will) crash.  So
make sure that one of teh logins if OFF before using `/etc/init q'.

Oh, by the way, I rarely (read never) get any double panics when doing
serial communications (save the problem just mentioned 8-).  But, all
of my connections are through Bell Technologies HUB6 6 port serial card
(A wonderful addition to my Compaq Unix System!)
