        Haven't done it. You should be able to connect with a term 
program on your //c. If you use this method you should be able to set 
your linux machine up to read your Apple as a terminal (matching the 
termcap to the emulation you chose for the Apple). 

        Apparently the latest version doesn't like speeds > 9600 on the 
lines. You will need a cable with all nine lines connected. I may be 
wrong though. My brother made up some cables to connect my terminals to 
my linux box and they had less than the nine lines. Try it and see. 

        Actually the best way to find out is to use a term program on 
both machines and set the baud rate to 9600. If the machines communicate 
then you should have no trouble with linux.
