I'd reccomend the free upgrade to the native hyperterminal client
it addresses known bugs with the nt version (based on past experience, i
now assume that problems plaguing NT also plague Windows 2000 unless
otherwise notified) and i've found it to be generally more robust (please
note that that is an extremely informal observation).

Subject: dumb Linux terminal-router question
Next week I'm teaching basic router configuration to some high school
students. One of the students has a notebook computer that runs Linux.
Assuming there is a normal serial port on the notebook, will he able to
easily run a terminal emulator to connect to the console port on the Cisco
routers?
I know he'll be able to do Telnet once we have an initial config, but
before we get to that point, can he config the routers in a similar fashion
to the HyperTerminal the Windoze users will be using?
Thank-you very much for your help.
Priscilla
