Hi,
socat should cover that just fine, see `man socat`
something like:

socat /dev/ttyS0,raw,echo=0,crnl /dev/ttyS1,raw,echo=0,crnl
should work.

For reusing/multiplexing ports take a look at my forum entry here:
http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/23379-Sharing-physical-COM-port-with-two-servers?p=116991#post116991
And especially the project GitHub site: https://github.com/danielinux/ttybus
It may also be helpful.

Hello,



this may not be exactly be a proxmox problem ...



I have to connect two VM servers via a (virtual) cross-over serial cable. I do not want to use the serial ports of the VM host - i.e. connect the serial interfaces from the VMs to /dev/ttyS(1/2) and use a physical x-over cable at the proxmox host.



I know that I can use the "-serial:..." option to define the serial ports. But how to interconnect two of them.



Is such a thing possible.

If yes, can you give me a hint on how to do it ?



Kind regards

  Petric
