[Ltsp-discuss] Re: Serial port redirection

[Corey Minyard]

I've attached a ser2net patch for this.  Could you try it out?

* ser2net is totally incompatible with cyclades-serial-client. This is
because ser2net interprets RFC2217 a bit differently. sredird sends
command "101" as ack for command "1", while ser2net sends "1". RFC2217 is
not very explicit about which way is most correct. The ser2net approach
looks better to me, but the sredird one is probably more widely used
(since Cyclades terminal server uses it, for example.) Probably, RFC2217
software needs to handle both cases.

+       * dataxfer.c: Have the telnet option responses use the 1xx
+       responses to the com port control options.  I believe this is
+       wrong, but it is consistent with other products already in the
