Dana, So, you've got a Squirrel POS system on an Ethernet LAN connecting to a UniData system on a (presumably different) Ethernet LAN and you're trying to connect them via serial ports?
Wouldn't a LAN-level [router] connection be easier? Then you could try some XML, or HTTP, or sockets programming. Or even BCI and stuffing data into / snatching data out of the Squirrel database. Gotta be more fun than serial ports, even if not quite as 'cool' as UniObjects! ;-) Worth thinking about?

The tty port connects to a Systech brand "serial port server". It's a box that sort of converts serial to Ethernet. It has an IP address that is known by the Squirrel server.
