Using minicom to connect over Serial Port
Hello folks,
I wanted to use minicom for terminal emulation to connect to a switch over the console port..., the same way I'd do it using hyperterminal under Windows. However, I can't get it to work. Using the cmd line to connect to the switch over the serial port on my machine:
minicom -p /dev/ttys0
I get an "Invalid Input/Output Error"
Do I have the serial port wrong? It is /dev/ttys0, rite? And is there any other way I can check if my comp can acknowledge the presence of the switch on its serial port?
Somehow I get the feeling I'm making a silly mistake someplace...
