Thanks to all who replied to my request for information on any tools
that allow 2 Suns to have identical displays by communicating over
RS-232 ( NOT ethernet ). Many people didnt understand why anyone would
want to do this. I know its not really practical, but it really is
necessary for the application in mind. Others suggested a couple of
products available, which is exactly what I wanted.

Matt Wette suggested a product called ppp-Sparc4.1 available via
anonymous ftp from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu.

Matt Goheen suggested 'xmx' and SLIP.

Birger suggested a free product called 'shX'.

Most everyone else wanted more information on why I was doing it
this way. I cant really explain.
Thanks to everyone who did reply ( I hope I didnt forget anyone ).
