I now have everything connected to a DECserver 90M with reverse-LAT so, from the computers point of view, there is always a console cable connected. I don't have a spare terminal server to toss at it so I'm trying to think of my options. I suppose I could just flip the "disable break" switch." I suspect what is happening is that the computer is treating the cable disconnect as a 'break' which then will drop it to the console prompt. That makes sense. I can test that tomorrow by flipping the "break enable" switch. Don't feel like heading downstairs to boot the MVII right now. I do want to eventually swap the KA630 for a KA650/KA655/KA660 though.
