Re: [cobalt-developers] Accessing the console port



Thanks David.

I'd still like to have a software solution for the XTR if someone knows of
one.  I don't really have a real cable for my console port, it's a 9-pin
plug with RJ45 (female) on the back, and that connects to a wire coming out
of the CISCO 2511 terminal controller (sort of a modem pool device that you
can remotely telnet to and have it connect you to one of it's async wires
terminated by RJ45 (male) jacks.

There is a "stty  clocal" command which seems to get me partway there, but
it is only in effect for the life of a session.  Someone also suggested
setserial, but not sure if
1) that has the option I want
2) can be set up to affect ttyS0
3) can be made to execute automatically at every system startup.
