i dunno the digi stuff, but console servers usually provide access to the serial ports via telnet or ssh. in general you don't wanna expose these to the 'net, but it's good enough for a seperate vlan or the like to an openbsd box that you either run conserver on or just use to jump through. -- Henning Brauer, h...@bsws.de, henn...@openbsd.org BS Web Services, http://bsws.de, Full-Service ISP Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services.
