sredird: RFC 2217 Telnet serial port redirector Sredird is a serial port redirector that is compliant with the RFC 2217 "Telnet Com Port Control Option" protocol. This protocol lets you share a serial port through the network. Sredird was written originally by Denis Sbragion (InfoTecna) and Jeffrey Altman (The Kermit Project, Columbia University) and was distributed by the Kermit Project. After July 2003, it took on a life of its own, and now can be found at a number of repositories, of which the most up-to-date (as of this writing, 1 Aug 2004) is Debian: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/sredird source http://packages.debian.org/unstable/comm/sredird binaries A copy of sredird version 2.2.1-1 (31 Jul 2004) is retained here for convenience: sredird_2.2.1-1.tar.gz but you should check Debian, Freshmeat, Gnu.Org, etc, to see if there is something newer. For posterity, a copy of sredird 2.2.0 remains available in the 'old' subdirectory. Another implementation of the same protocol has been done by Thomas Pinkl, called telnetcpcd; you can find it at SourceForge, e.g.: http://sourceforge.net/projects/telnetcpcd/ A copy of version 1.09 has been placed in this directory for convenience as: telnetcpcd-1.09.tar.gz This file last updated: Sun Aug 1 14:24:13 2004 (end)
