is it possible to login to a switch via RS232 / serial port from the shell?

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?
