Red hat --- hyper term?

Can some one help me? I have been used to using XP, but now I really want to learn more about unix etc. So the problem is i've been using Hyperterm to connect Serial / Console to a cisco 2501. I used to run Hyper term then switch on the router and i would be able to to talk.


What do I use in Red Hat 5? Is telnet an option? This PC I'm using is offline so downloading minicom, will not be an option.

Smilie

I recommend using "minicom", are you sure you don't have it on any CD?

Do you have "cu", this is part of the uucp suite and will let you talk using a serial port.

On Solaris you would use "tip".

How are you posting here? Why can you not download minicom?
