See the man page for information about using the program. + +Note that ser2net supports RFC 2217 (remote control of serial port +parameters), but you must have a compliant client. The only one I +know if is kermit (http://www.columbia.edu/kermit). + +If you want the opposite of ser2net (you want to connect to a "local" +serial port device that is really remote) then Cyclades has provided +a tool for this at http://www.coker.com.au/cyclades. It is capable +of connecting to ser2net using RFC2217. |
