3.1.1.3 Serial line

In order to use TCP/IP over a serial line, you only need a null modem. Here's how the pins are connected on the cable I use:

 2 <--->   3
 3 <--->   2
 4 <--->   5
 5 <--->   4
 6 <--->  20
 7 <--->   7
 8 <--->  20
20 <---> 6+8

This cable has proved to work with SLIP and PPP, as well as for using the other side as simple dumb terminal. The devices to use are:

`/dev/tty00' for the Amiga's built in serial port

`/dev/ttyA*' for the Multiface-card's ports.
