The Server Configuration
The Personal DECstation has been designed to be configured as either a
workstation or a server. (A server is used to provide other client systems in a
network with distributed services such as filing, computation and printing.)
When performing distributed network server tasks, the Personal DECstation
has no need for the expensive graphics hardware usually associated with
workstations, so it is configured without a graphics monitor. However, to
maintain a console window, you should connect the Personal DECstation to the
input and output from a VT320-type terminal attached to the RS232 port in
the rear of the system unit, as shown in Figure 8–1.
