I have a need (hard-coded purchased appliction) to access a HP-UX application
from a remote lan. If I use TELNET, each time I connect, I may get a different
virtual device name (/dev/pty/vtty01 or some such).  Unfortunately, this
application REALLY needs to know which terminal you are at to work correctly
(since it is co-ordinating with other devices which are not network queryable).
 
I'd like to be able to set up a terminal server on a bridged lan that I can
have
a specific serial port ALWAYS have a given pty number.  I can hardcode a
telnet server to always use a certain socket, but then I would need 24
copies of telnetd running on the server.
 
Is there any other way?  for example, can you use other than the new
DTCnnMX controllers to access a vanilla HP-UX 9.0 system and if so
what software do you need on the UX box (we have no MPE boxes)?  Where
can I get pricing and availability on the new DTC's (software pre-reqs, etc).
the HP web page says to find  your local HP sales rep.....
 
Is there a LAT stack on the HP-UX platform? (have a LAT terminal server
as well) and if so can it hard-code a particular pty to a given session?
 
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
