Hi, After many mistakes, defective cables, and a lot of help from these people, I have login to my Slink box from a Win95 box. I have: A null modem 9-pin mini cable about 10 meters long. HyperTerminal on Win95 (windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Hyper Terminal\hypertrm.exe) Direct to COM4 vt100 emulation 9600, 8, None, 1 stop, hardware | None flow ctrl
At Slink end, /etc/securetty added lines: "ttyS0, ttyS1, ttyS3" below tty12" /etc/inittab: removed comment "#" from "T1:23:respawn/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100" A click on Send will download a file of your choice to the pwd directory on Linux. Hope this helps. -jw
