The bridge should run on Vyatta fine, i'm not sure of where to grab the current code though. On 1/17/2013 8:20 AM, John H. Reinhardt wrote: Hi Johnny, My name is John Reinhardt.

Otherwise I may take a shot at the bridge and see if I can get it running on my Vyatta firewall/router. Where is the latest version of the bridge code? Regards, John H.

Their new devices come with a USB port instead of a serial port for console. Wanna know what it is? It's a USB<->serial adapter built into the device. :) That was smart! It's not a matter of them not working well, though, I'd bet...it's more a matter of techs complaining about having to carry around something else. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA

That being said, I rarely plug this thing into anything external and the docking station has a DVI port, so if I really wanted an external monitor I'd just use that. -brian

GNU Screen can be a terminal emulator, along with minty, HyperTerminal, putty the list goes on and on... I've heard it a lot. It's just the Windows people. "Terminal programs are EXPENSIVE!" No. Idiots. Go get a grownup OS and leave Windows for the videogames. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
