It has been a long time since I did serial connections but as I remember
you use a null modem connection I used serial connections to logon
to a 3b2 unix machine and still have a copy of the connection file
for kermit
set carrier-watch off
set line /dev/ttyS1
set speed 9600
set key \127 \8
set terminal bytesize 7
connect
As I remember you also have to change the inittab so it will detect
the connection and let someone connect to the machine but I only
did that on unix never with linux If you have kermit on both machines
it works great for file transfer and terminal connection I used it to
move everything from the 3b2 to Linux when they quit making replacement
parts. That was a great machine.
