Hi all,

since I got no response to my posting sent a few days ago I dare to ask the question again. Is it possible to access the serial port of the client device (Mobile Windows running on a pocket PC) from a unix application running on the SGD server (Solaris 10)?

I heard that the automotive industry does this for testing engines. Jimmies car repair service next door does need no more than a windows notebook and an adaptor to connect the vehicle electronic to the serial port of the notebook. The test software actually runs in the data center on BMW, Mercedes,... The windows notebook has nothing more than an SGD client installed. Is this just rumor or can anybody confirm this setup? We would like to do the same to make the GPS mourse (actually a serial port) on the client devices accessible by the unix app running in the data center on the sgd server.

Thanks a lot!

Regards,

  Andreas
