I have always used minicom or tip(1) to connect to tty ports. Never had any issues on any cisco box. In larger installation we'll set up a 25xx (can't remember the exact model) with multiple tty ports and reverse telnet to do out-of-band management. Have also used Baytech terminal servers as well, though those weren't as reliable as I'd like. > > At 07:57 AM 7/2/2003, you wrote: > >Hi Everyone, > >I'm just curious if anyone has any experience > >with a USB to Serial (DB9) cable?
