I might be totally missing something, but how to you send line speed and flow control settings over telnet? Even with a pty, you can't do that. Here's a bit more information. This device is a box, that you plug a ethernet cable into, and a serial port comes out of. On the remote end, you connect to the device, and it needs to look like you are directly controling that serial port, line settings and flow control and all. Just like a usb-serial device, but instead of USB, you are using TCP as the transport layer. With those requirements, can telnet and a pty still implement this? thanks, greg k-h
