Re: Virtual Serial Device Thingy.
As far as my understanding of the matter reaches, NFS mounting the remote
directory will simply provide you a pseudo local file with major/minor numbers
corresponding to the LOCAL serial port.
Besides - the man didn't say he could do anything with the remote machine,
just telnet.
Danny - it goes without saying that you either own both machines in question,
or have explicit permission from the owner of the machine to which the modem
is connected to do what you are asking here. I want it made clear that I,
personally, will not give my help to any form of illegal cracking activity of
any kind.

To unsubscribe, send mail to linux-il-request@linux.org.il with
the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command
echo unsubscribe | mail linux-il-request@linux.org.il
