Remote-Serial

a linux software to communicate with a distant rs.232 port over a network link

Idea

The idea of this project is to develop software components, that allow the usage of a distant RS.232 port through a network connection. By the use of the software, it will be possible to use a device, connected to another machine's serial port. This could, for example, be a network switch. The software is going to be developed for the Linux operating system.
