Hi,
I'm in need of accessing physical tty's from SimH now too, see this
BeagleBone installation with 4x RS232:

One idea was to let SimH simulate additional serial ports over telnet as
usual.
Access to physical ttys should be made outside SimH with some
"telnet-server-to-tty" bridge on the BeagleBone Linux itself.
For MS-Windows such solutions exist, search for "IPCOMSERVER".
But I found nothing similar on Linux.
Did anybody researched in that direction?

Hello!
Right now I am tooling up to try out an idea or two concerning the
PDP-11 emulation. This is to be run on a Raspberry Pi running the
latest release of their Raspberry specific Debian release. (Also fully
updated and upgraded.)
The device has the two USB connections ostensibly for a keyboard and
mouse, but one gentleman I know managed to make use of the serial port
function on one of them, and attached a USB to serial adapter to one
of the connections. So obviously I can connect two adapters to the two
ports there.
But what about the serial port embedded on the GPIO connectors? Can I
make use of that one?
I know normally that SIMH emulates a chosen computer and only fairly
recently with some of them do communicate with the outside world via
Ethernet, but for what I'm planning and working on, it seems to be a
good fit. Should it work I might be able to upscale the working
programs to Mr Wilson's product running on an X86 board instead, or
even an actual PDP-11 model.....
