The console is KB0: and it does not use a DZ11 line.
I believe that any configured pseudo keyboards would use the next
numbers
in the series PK1:, PK2:, for example.
Then the actualy DZ11 KBs would start with the next number in the
series,
for example KB3:, KB4:, etc

I suppose actually doing 10 or so would be enough... 3 possible
telneters here.

It sure does. If it's a DZ (whether real, or emulated one tied to a
Telnet session at the emulator) it by definition has 8 ports.
If you want 20 sessions, and they are hooked to DZs, then you'd have
to have at least 3 DZs...

Hmm.. In the simulator, I type show dz
DZ, address=17760100-17760137*, vector=300-334, lines=32, attached to
232, 8b, 0 connections
Does this mean I have 32 KBn: (KB0 - KB31??)
