RE: [cobalt-security] Easy Question

["Colin J. Raven" <cjraven@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

John;
Duhhh...you already did ssh....disregard that part. I was not paying the
requisite degree of attention!

Another way in is via the serial port, but I have had NO luck with that
whatsoever. I couldn't get a terminal session running no matter what the
heck I tried...changing port speeds...nothing worked.
Sorry, I should have read you post with more care, I do apologize.

As an aside, if anyone has a definitive way to make the damn "cereal
port" access method actually work, I'd like to know. I fought with that
thing for weeks and couldn't get any results.
Regards,
-Colin
