A/UX: Multi-User Accessibility (8/94)


Can A/UX be used as a multi-user system?

A/UX is primarily a multi-tasking system. It can be operated as a multi-user system, but A/UX is NOT expressly designed to be a central system for multiple users -- at least, not as most people would view a true multi-user system.

The idea behind A/UX on the Macintosh is to have multiple stations, networked together, that can share resources.

Multiple users can interface with the Macintosh through Ethernet, or through the serial communication ports.
