Thanks. I've tried to use netconsole, but it did not work very well in my case. So, I want to try serial console. I have 2 computers, one is a PC, and the other is a Laptop. Unfortunately, my Laptop doesn't have a serial port on it. But then, the each machine has a internal serial modem respectively. Then, can I use a telephone line to directly connect the two machines via their internal modems (i.e. One end of the telephone line is plugged into The PC's modem, and the other end is plugged into The Laptop's modem directly), and let them do the same function as two serial ports and a null modem can do? If it is, How to achieve that? Thank you. ===== -- Best Regards, Park Lee __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
