Back in the "old days" - when all terminals were connected via DTC
ports, it was straightforward to send messages to all DTC ports.  This
is the method we used to notify users that a planned shutdown was over,
etc.

Now that most connections are from a network using terminal emulators,
it's not so easy.  Naturally, we can use Novell broadcasts or Winpopup
messages, but we'd like to be able to do it {perhaps automatically]
from the 3000.

Does anyone have ideas on how this could be done to a static IP
address? How about DHCP-based addresses?

TIA
