D-type serial/USB adapter & hyperterminal
Hi,

I looking for a 9pin D-type connector serial port for my iBook (ie - standard windows com port connector). I need this as I often connect to linux machines which send their console output to the com port. This can be picked up with any dumb console software like HyperTerminal in wondows. However I want a Mac solution so I can do this on my iBook.
Does anybody know of anything like this for the Mac?
I know Belkin & Keyspan do USB-->Serial adapters, but they have mini-DIN connectors. These may still work. But is there any console like software for MacOSX similar to hyperterminal for windows?

Thanks

Paul
