Peeyush Maurya's Technical Guide for MINICOM

Hyper Terminal Of Linux

I was stuck once when had to configure a Cisco Router using Telnet...I cant telnet Router directly. as there is no configuration there...so had to telnet a Computer than connect to console of Router. In a GUI i can do HyperTerminal. but in telnet there was no way to do it. until a friend (Anurag Kuthiala) told me about MINICOM... so i configured Minicom in Linux. telnet to Linux and got the router connected....

Minicom is a serial communication program. It is a Unix clone of the well-known MS-DOS Telix program. It has ANSI color, a dialing directory, dial-a-list, and a scripting language.
