I think this would require both support for the DTC > devices and porting the DTCMANAGER software. I currently user a couple of DTC 16RX for my serial console solutions. I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish, but I configured the DTCs using the console and put the software bits on my tftpserver that I use to server up parisc-linux kernel images from. This has worked flawless for me over the last couple of years and has been an excellent console solution for my usage. [Note: both DTC retrieve the same bits from my tftp server, so no custom configuration appears to be stored in those binaries]. > Do you just want to be able to access the devices?

I do not use the DTCMANAGER software under linux ... I configured all the ports on the DTC and when I want to add another remote console I just plug it in and telnet to the DTC port# (I portscanned the DTC to get the port numbers) and vola, I have the serial console to the system. [Note: I am not running HP-UX anywhere in my house, so this solutions is pure i386 and parisc-linux. Hope that help, but not sure if this is the information you are looking for.
