Folks-
Thanks to all who wrote back, including the following folks, with
prompt answers to my question about how to hook-up a VT320 to the serial
port on an Alpha 2100 Server for use as the Console.

I ended up using what materials I could find at hand and in a hurry
to solve the problem. I managed the connection from VT320 to Alpha
using: a 9-pin to 25-pin serial cable, a Dec-423 cable (?), a Null
modem connector, a Gender Changer, a Dec 25-pin to MMJ connector (?),
and a large, nasty rubber-band to hold it all together. It's not
pretty, but it works for now.
Thanks, again, to all for the help. I'll make/acquire a better
connector later.
