16:28.49feutetejsdhey--have any of you used minicom or any other similar app with OS X?
16:31.24macnewboldnot on OSX
16:31.38feutetejsdd'oh
16:31.41macnewboldwhy?
16:32.34feutetejsdwell, we have some machines in our company's datacenter that we occasionally need to access via minicom, and I was wondering if/how to go about it on my mac
16:32.57feutetejsdalso, wondering how to go about dealing with managed switches in our office via serial interface from my mac
16:41.19macnewboldwell, you can install minicom with darwinports or probably fink,
16:42.19macnewboldwhat type of physical connection do you have with the machines?
16:42.46macnewboldminicom is for serial, IIRC, which most Macs don't have, no?
16:44.10feutetejsdright--I've heard of using usb to 9-pin serial adapters....
16:44.28feutetejsdand I assume minicom would work fine with that, but....dunno
16:44.36macnewboldyeah, it should
