Sure.  Then I can set up SLIP and the like.  That's why I asked where
I could find a serial cable.

There is a Java-based VNC client, but it cannot handle SSH2.  Mindterm
has not yet written an SSH2 client in Java but they have written one
for SSH1.  That problem is solvable in an easier way by having a
couple of CDs that have NetBSD, X11, VNC, and SSH2 on them, IMHO.  I'm
stuck with password authentication for obvious reasons, but that's
acceptable.
