Hi all I have a problem switch in our data centre, which is connected to a linux server via a serial cable. I know I can / could access the switch from my Windows PC back at the office, using hyperterm, but trying to access it using minicom just doesn't seem to work. I have changed the comms in minincom to use /dev/tty0 & the baud rate to 9600, yet I can't seem to connect with minicom. Does anyone know how to connect to a serial device from the console? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Office: 087 805-9573 Fax No: 086 609 6128 Cell: 082 554 7532 Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Forum: http://Forum.SoftDux.com Join SA WebHostingTalk today, on http://www.WebHostingTalk.co.za
