Title: Multiport Serial cards
Post by: Bobby Wright on August 28, 2002, 09:47:00 AM

Has anyone installed a multiport serial card, like a Equinox or RocketPort card in their SME server?  I want to hang a couple of modems on a server that I use for our POP3 mail so that users can dial directly into the SME server to get their email instead of going through an ISP.

I have used these on NT and CUBIX servers with good success but I don't find any threads on this PHORUM in regards to user experiences.

Best Regards;

Yes, I install one multiserial into

HP TC2110 with SME 5.5

If the card are linux-ready, you can:

a) cat /proc/pci ---> look to card IRQ and IO address

b) use setserial to assign IRQ, Address and speed to /dev/ttySx
