I'm not entirely sure about your setup - you write usb based controllers - and then mostly serial... I know it is not strictly speaking usb over ip - but did you look at RFC 2217 ? https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2217 There are several projects supporting RFC 2217: http://ser2net.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/sercd/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/cyclades-serial/ "ser2net" and "sredird" are in FreeBSD ports: http://www.freshports.org/comms/ser2net/ http://www.freshports.org/comms/sredird/ /Uffe
