I bought a Cyclades port monitoring device (TS-400) to do just that, as that
is what it does internally using a Linux single board computer. The main
thing to watch out for on Solaris SPARC boxes is if the serial port receives
a "break" signal, the Sun box drops into the EEPROM monitor.
Other than that, yes you could just monitor the serial port.
Regards,
Jill.

Subject: [SLUG] Serial to TCP/IP convertor
All,
I am looking for a serial port to tcp/ip convertor to run
on solaris and linux. Can you point me to a simple process
for listening on a serial port and converting data received
in it and sending it to clients connecting on its listening port ?
Programming guides or any other useful pointers are
all welcome.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Regards,
Rajnish
