Ahh.... A Null modem cable? Or, perhaps BSD will allow you to configure the serial interface in the software - make one end a DCE type and the other by default will remain a DTE. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Frederique Rijsdijk Sent: Tuesday, October 20, 2009 9:06 AM To: FreeBSD-Questions Subject: cross-link serial console If I have 2 machines, could I connect the machines to each other via serial cable, in order to be able to reach each others' console in case of out of band issues? I know how to config it, I was just wondering if it would not bite each other. -- FR _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" <font size=3D"1"> <div style=3D'border:none;border-bottom:double windowtext 2.25pt;padding:0i= n 0in 1.0pt 0in'> </div> "This email is intended to be reviewed by only the intended recipient and may contain information that is privileged and/or confidential.
