As would I! We've been using a PM2e as a console server for a couple
of months now, and it's extrememly flaky. We have it connected to a
number of different devives.... sometimes the console port will just
freeze up, other times the tty will get all screwed up (it's even caused
one of our SunOS boxes to crash - I think because it dropped DTR or
something along those lines.)

I've tried a number of different configurations on the PM2e ports without
success.... but would be very interested in hearing from someone who's
been able to get it working as a console server reasonably well.
Particularly in port configuration and ComOS version.
