setting up com port for serial connection to monitor network switch help
I have recently installed Fedora Core 2 on my Sony Vaio Laptop and I need some help getting the com port active so I can connect to a HP network switch via a serial cable to monitor/capture packets on some slow ports. The com port is built in to the laptop and I am not sure which /dev device it is associated with. Thanks for any help and let me know if more info is required.
PS. I have installed both minicom and seyon with no luck on either. They cannot find modem, but I am not trying to connect via modem.
thanks
