Subject: Using an NTS instead of the local serial device ?
Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2007 22:32:35 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <14532384.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)


Hi folks,


I just successfully set up a basic ppp link between 2 Ubuntu 7.10 machines.



The commands look like this:


me@machine1 $ pppd -detach persist lock proxyarp 192.168.10.1:192.168.10.2
/dev/ttyS0 38400 &


me@machine2 $ pppd -detach persist lock defaultroute
192.168.10.2:192.168.10.1 /dev/ttyS0 38400 &


I wonder whether it is posible to use a serial port of an NTS for
communiction instead of the local serial device /dev/ttyS0 ? I own a
Lantronix ETS8P, which is a 8-port Network Terminal Server.


I tried

me@machine1 $ pppd -detach persist lock proxyarp 192.168.10.1:192.168.10.2
ip.of.nts:tcpport 38400 &


without success. 

As I am new to Linux in general, maybe somebody can give me a hint.


Thanks
