I think what you're looking for is called vtserver.
Here is one version.

note: this works fine an 11/34 and Qbus cpu's but it won't work on an
11/44.
It could be hacked to work on a 11/44 using an alternate serial port
but I've never seen that. The 11/44 console responds to control characters
(like ^P) rendering the protocol unworkable.
