Hi All,
Hi Chris, thanx for reply
I think the links you gave dont cover my problem. the
thing is that I can log on onto my mac on console so
that's ok with me. All I want is to connect to cisco
router from (ttya modem port) ttyZ0, I don't really
want to connect to ttyZ0, just from ttyZ0. does that
make any sense and/or difference?
thanx for your help
tom
