Angry Linux serial-connect to SCO Unix


I have a linux machine (Mandrake 9.0) which is serially connected to a SCO OpenServer running "getty". Well, I want to add a console - accessible via Ctrl+Alt+Fn or similar - to remotelly administer my unix server.
I mean, I want to use my linux machine as a serial terminal vt220.

Any help? Thank you all, Matteo.

minicom should work well for this.

Minicom is correct but can be hard to configure.
If you have problems you can use the serial terminal linux floppy:
