Console

[jose sanchez]

Hello:

I would like to know if a Linux box can be accessed
through the hyperterminal program in windows. In other
words, use Linux as a console. I only have two
monitors and it's a pain in the rear to be unpluging
the monitor, and keyboard from on computer to the
other. Trying to avoid this... I know, is lazyness.

I already tried using a null modem cable from com1 (in
Linux) to com1 (in Win) but no luck. I don't get any
communication bet. the two. 

If this is possible, then are there any espicific
configurations needed in the kernel or Linux box
itself.

I am running RH 6.2.

Thanks in advance.

-Jose
