Hi johnf,

1. We have a VGA CRT monitor connected to the serial port of a KVM switch. And another serial cable from the switch to the server's display's adapter serial port.
2. It has worked previously.
3. At the moment we do not know what has changed as today my colleague looked at the display and saw that it was not responding. Other colleagues confirm that they were not able to connect to the machine few days ago but we were not informed until today.
4. How do I check the port setting?
5. We have not tried that and do not know how. How do we do that?

The machine we are using is a IBM eServer
