Subject: [ubuntu-za] Terminal emulator on a socket

Ok, another interesting one...

My laptop does not have a serial port so I generally use a device server
for development.  The device server gives me 4 adjustable serial ports
(232/422/485) but make them available as TCP/IP sockets.

I've connected a console device to one of the ports.  If I connected it
to a direct serial port I could have used the CuteCom or MiniCom
terminal emulators to access the console.  What do I do in this case
where the console is on a socket?

Hi Charl 

I don't know if this will work but you can try tn5250 should be in the repos
ive used it in the past to connect to the work's as400 server which is also
on a tcp/ip socket connection
