I have something called "the Logical Connection" by Fifth Generation Systems, Inc. that lets me share peripherals with other things. The way it works is like this:
#0-Serial #1-Serial #2-Serial #3-Serial #4-PARALLEL OUT #5-PARALLEL OUT #6-PARALLEL IN #7-PARALLEL IN I am going to use this device so that I can "network" computers to give them shell access to my linux box. I need help in writing device drivers for it, or if anyone already has one. What I would like linux to do is label all the ports in the /dev directory. I don't know whether to use linux's built in multi-porting, or if I have to write a driver. The device uses headers to decide what port to send to. Any help is greaty appreciated.
