null modem for testing

hi all..

sorry for repeating the same question many times,

i just set up a null modem, i am using this as reference :
DB25 DB9
-- -
2 TD ---- 2 RD
3 RD ---- 3 TD
4 RTS ---- 8 CTS
5 CTS ---- 7 RTS
7 GND ---- 5 GND
6 DSR -+
+--- 4 DTR
8 DCD -+
+- 6 DSR
20 DTR ---+
+- 1 DCD

it is working and i can see the output from server until i find OK, but i can't send any command after completed the test.
is there any design for null modem for a certain sun server???
still struggling and moving very slow.....

i will appreciate for any help...

solterm(1)						   IPMI Serial over LAN program 						solterm(1)

NAME
solterm - An IPMI Serial over LAN program SYNOPSIS
solterm <connection parms> [-e escape_char] [-notencrypted] [-notauthenticated] [-bitrate (9600|19200|38400|57600|115200)] [-alerts (suc- ceed|defer|fail)] [-holdoff] [-ack-retries n] [-ack-timeout microseconds] [-v] [-q] DESCRIPTION
The solterm program allows a user to make a remote serial connection over IPMI. The requires that the remote system support IPMI 2.0 Serial Over LAN. OPTIONS
<connection parms> The parameters for the connection depend on the connection type. These are all described in openipmi_conparms (7) -e escape_char The character to use to escape, or exit, the program. Entering this chatacter right after a newline is entered causes the program to go into command mode. A single character after this performs a command. The default escape character is "~" as shown below. Suppported commands are: ~. Terminate the program ~B Send a serial BREAK over the connection ~F Flush all buffers ~R Assert the Ring Indicator (RI) line ~r Deassert the Ring Indicator (RI) line ~D Assert DCD and DSR lines ~d Deassert DCD and DSR lines ~C Pause the output using CTS ~c Put CTS under BMC control ~? Help on escape commands ~~ Enter the escape character twice to send it. -notencrypted Do not encrypt the SOL data going over the connection. -notauthenticated Do not do integrity checks on the SOL data going over the connection. -bitrate Set the bitrate to the given value. The default is whatever the BMC has set it to. -alerts This specifies what to do if a alert that requires a callout occurs on the line. succeed specifies that serial/modem alerts are to succeed while SoL is active. deferred specifies that serial/modem alerts are to be deferred for the duration of the SoL session. fail specifies that serial/modem alerts automatically fail during the SoL session. This is the default. -holdoff Specifies that CTS, DTR, and DSR are to be deasserted at the start of the SoL session so that the configuration may be modifeid before the handshake is released. -v Be more verbose. Maybe specified multiple time for more output. -q Be less verbose. Maybe specified multiple time for less output. SEE ALSO
