Also removed sig. [I've sent this a couple times yesterday and once today, but I can't find it in the archives anywhere - could an admin check to see if the mailing software is rejecting my mail from stinkfist@tribalwar.com? I'm registered w/ the list at that address. I'm most definately receiving email from both questions and current(this on a different account)] I've searched the handbook and haven't found anything about this. I'm trying to setup a serial console for some remote machines i'm admining. I want to set it up using null modem cables, as it says in the handbook like so: www:s1 - sql:s2 www:s2 - mail:s1 sql:s1 - mail:s2 >From what i've read it needs a dumb terminal? Is it possible to do it without using this and only setting it up with the null modem cables and nothing else? I assume this is possible, but the documentation doesn't seem to say anything about using only the cables and nothing more. Thanks, Daryl PS: I apologize if yahoo adds html to the email. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo http://search.yahoo.com
