Ok,
I'm going crazy right now trying to find a "system" I can use as a
terminal/console server. I need something that I can connect ttya from
my Servers (SUN) to the serial of some machine and use it to remotly
access the physical console of my server. This way I can login as
root remotely in an emergency (NIS is down) or send a STOP-A/break
to hardbood the machine. Does anyone know if I can do this with a
Linux box with a serial port multiplier? Has anyone done it? Any
suggestions?
