Berndt" To: Questions@FreeBSD.org Date: Mon, 15 May 1995 20:47:12 +500 Subject: Serial<->Net<->Serial pipe???? Priority: normal X-Mailer: Pegasus Mail/Windows (v1.22) Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk First, on a 1 to 10 BSD scale, I am a 1.5 or so, please "flame-refrain"...... I would like to hook up 2 pc's, in different cities, with their serial ports "net-connected". Anything that goes in one, comes out the other, and vice-versa. This will be used to let a couple of dumb terminals log on to a machine that only has serial port access. Telnet puts you at a login prompt, so that won't work. Has anyone out there already done something like this? Am I missing some really easy and obvious solution? Thanks. Randy Berndt [Signature, like all highways in Houston, under construction.]
