I've never seen /dev/eth0 on Linux so you may want to double check that. It is possible to connect input/output java-streams to devices. At www.rxtx.org we open serial devices via JNI. Just opening them with Java File should be fine for default settings. The source code is available to rxtx if that would be of use. If its the ethernet port you are after, things will not be as simple; you probably want to look at sockets which Java does a good job with already. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
