I'm not sure.... it sounds like you want a "master" terminal that you enter commands into, then a lot of "slave" terminals that receive the command all at once from the master. The slaves will each be connected to different unix boxes.
I don't know how to do that, I have seen one terminal that executed one command using remsh against several different remote boxes.
I am trying to find out what I should install to provide internet access and browsing possibilities on multiple unix terminals. Can anybody help?

Well I was trying to configure an Old PC having Win 3.1 to speak X with my UNIX server . I looked at notes , Looks like Debian Linux gives a base tarball to help boot of a floppy and talk to the XDMCP server .

Dear Members,
I have aquired a load of old Wyse dumb terminals. I have a Linux system set up that I want to be the host for all of these. Now, I know these don't use cat5 or standard networking. They are all done through serial (com) ports. However, I researched this more and found a converter... (25 Replies)

Hi Everyone!
I was wondering if there's an easy way to have terminals (gnome-terminal for instance) be open in such a way that they're not overlapping each other?
I suppose I could play around with the --geometry option but that would imply me checking whether a terminal is already at a given... (3 Replies)
Hi folks. This has been bothering me for a while.
Among the 8 virtual desktops I'm using, I have 18 terminals open right now.
I change some of my user configuration (e.g. put a new alias into ~/.bashrc); but in order to use this new added alias, I have to source the config file:

pty
PTY(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual PTY(4)NAME
pty -- BSD-style compatibility pseudo-terminal driver
SYNOPSIS
device pty
DESCRIPTION
The pty driver provides support for the traditional BSD naming scheme that was used for accessing pseudo-terminals. When the device
/dev/ptyXX is being opened, a new terminal shall be created with the pts(4) driver. A device node for this terminal shall be created, which
has the name /dev/ttyXX.
New code should not try to allocate pseudo-terminals using this interface. It is only provided for compatibility with older C libraries that
tried to open such devices when posix_openpt(2) was being called.
FILES
The BSD-style compatibility pseudo-terminal driver uses the following device names:
/dev/pty[l-sL-S][0-9a-v] Pseudo-terminal master devices.
/dev/tty[l-sL-S][0-9a-v] Pseudo-terminal slave devices.
DIAGNOSTICS
None.
SEE ALSO posix_openpt(2), pts(4), tty(4)HISTORY
A pseudo-terminal driver appeared in 4.2BSD.
BUGS
Unlike previous implementations, the master slave device nodes are destroyed when the PTY becomes unused. A call to stat(2) on a nonexistent
master device will already cause a new master device node to be created. The master device can only be destroyed by opening and closing it.
The pty driver cannot be unloaded, because it cannot determine if it is being used.
