Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Trouble Setting Up Sun Ultra 10 - Displaying Garbage Post 302558933 by frhan2u on Monday 26th of September 2011 12:40:27 AM

Thanks for the prompt reply!

If you look at the image file I attached, you will see that I have a USB to serial cable already. Is it the same as a null modem cable? (as my laptop doesn't have a serial out/vga out) I mean, I can attach the serial end of it to the B port on server and USB end to laptop, will that do? Or do I have to get a null modem cable anyway?

Also, for the past 10 hours having trouble with this USB to serial cable, not being picked up by my Windows 7 anymore (used to work fine!) so have ordered one more; and when that comes in will try to connect it to B port of server ( is that what you meant? coz I was connecting it to the DB25 port of the server before by using a DB25 to RJ45 adapter )

Many thanks.
