Greetings All:

I am having quite a time with a project I'm working on. I have konsole automatically opening and logging into a unix server. We have a homegrown system that we weigh things in and we are trying to configure konsole to use it.

Our scale is a serial device, so we need to be able to send a command to the scale and receive data back form it through the serial port back to the server via konsole.

Our current setup is HP 700/70 terminals that we are trying to replace.

Anyone know how I can designate COM1 for bidrectional throughput in the konsole session? I can';t seem to get it to work.

Any help is IMMENSELY appreciated!!! Thanks!

Thanks for your input, I was starting to think that, too. Is there a way to make Minicom use eth0 to telnet out? I can't find any way to get it off the serial port...

No, we are telnetting via LAN, then need to pull data bidirectionally via the serial port from a device that sends a signal to the AUX port which is redirected out via the serial and then the device responds back with data.
