Can someone help me? Well, there are several things that could be done, but you're a bit too unspecific to really help you. The most important question remaining is: how do you physically want to connect serial (rs232 or something like that?!) to ethernet? There are some realls small microcontrollers available doing this. Then, you'll need the software port. There's an extension to the telnet protocol that encapsulates serial data for (networked) devices. I think this is the (software) way you should walk down. That'll increase interoperability a lot...
