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?
That should work, but I usually use kermit which has a lot more options
and is scriptable.
With kermit, try:
set line /dev/ttyS0
set carrier off (just in case the device doesn't raise CD)
connect
then it is control-] followed by 'c' to get back to kermit.
