The thread actually says Mikrotik can't do what I'm trying to
do...unless I'm missing something. Mikrotik can connect a telnet or ssh
session to it's serial port, or it can connect the serial port to an
emulated serial port on a PC.
What I have is a machine with a serial connection to a control panel,
and I want to move the control panel to a remote location.

Could I somehow tunnel the serial connection from the device to the
control panel with Mikrotik? There's no PC in the mix, just a serial
DCE to a DTE. If a pair of Mikrotiks could do this, that would save
me the trouble of buying something.

You can always use to mikrotik boards with serial interfaces or usb
serial. Works quite well.

It's for an LCD control panel for a piece of equipment. Google
shows me lots of serial-IP servers where it bridges a telnet session
to the serial port, but that's not what I'm looking for. I know you
industrial control guys do this, so I'm sure there's a way.
