Depends upon how you want to do it.  You can run a program like minicom
on the 486 and in inittab on the newer machine tell it to run getty over
a serial port using a null modem cable.  You can build a network and ssh
in.  There are more ways, just find some method to connect the systems
and you'll probably find a server and a client that you can play around
with.
