My next for-pay project is to use rebol to configure some machines in realtime that can only be accessed via serial ports so I too will be watching for answers to this one. If I have to, I may use or write an IP to serial translator as a last resort. Roger, would describe what you used to translate? I am curious only for the NT boxes I must maintain. Unixes are no issue to me since I used to write unix drivers a few years back. If I can, I will avoid 'expect' tho it too comes on NTs now.
