Hi,

RHEL 5.4 added a TTY terminal server over IUCV.  Here's a brief
description, copied/pasted from the feature request bugzilla:

"This implements the terminal server running on a dedicated z/VM
guest. The terminal server is a user space program that accepts
connections via the normal network and uses the AF_IUCV socket API to
provide a console session to the Linux guests of the z/VM system that
are enabled for the IUCV console."

Note that while the description above mentions 'user space program',
there is also an equivalent kernel piece that requires the RHEL 5.4
kernel as well as the RHEL 5.4 s390-utils package.

As for documentation, check out the readme here:

/usr/share/doc/s390utils-1.8.1/ts-shell/README.ts-shell

documentation about how to install and use it?
