If you could somehow get it attached to the network (e.g. use nc to connect the serial port to a listening "socket") you could then try something like brutus (http://www.hoobie.net/brutus/) and a word list, i think LC3 (http://www.atstake.com) had a nice one. I had to do something similar once, and i used a linux console server program to allow me to "telnet" to the serial port, you might even be able to fudge something together with a copy of minicom if you have a linux box to hand - then just point brutus at it.
