4.2 BSD networking info wanted

[Stephen J. Hartley]

Here at the University of Vermont we have two VAXes, a 750 and a 780, both
running 4.2 BSD since spring.  The two machines communicate to each other
through the DMF32 terminal ports: one line for uucp (750 always master) and
two more lines to allow tipping in each direction.  At present there is no
other hardware available for inter-machine communication.  My question concerns
setting up the Berkeley networking stuff (remote logins, etc.) on another
terminal port line between the two machines.  Is this possible?  How does one
go about it?  How are /etc/hosts and /etc/networks set up?  Can ifconfig(8C)
be used to do this and how?  I'm new at this game so I may be overlooking the
obvious and missing the forest for the trees!  Any help you can provide will
be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
