I know someone was able to get conserver to work on a Sun (Solaris) and using a portmaster for the physical connections. I do know he had to work on it for quite a while to get it work...
We use Portmasters for console access. It's a pretty basic setup and the things just plain work... can't really argue against reliability... :)
Thanks, Craig. I had a lot of fun setting it up. :)
And actually, I didn't even do the method without the port number, although I always wanted to go back and change that once I figured out how to do it on the Portmaster.
That being said, if you don't like Livingston, er, Lucent, you can probably get Xylogics, er, Bay Networks, to work just as well. And as a former Purdue student, I have nothing against conserver at all, but I've yet to see it in full implementation across an entire machine room to know if it's truly worth the effort or not.
