Hello,
I need to use a serial-to-ethernet device from Lantronix. That's a device which allows access to serial devices via ethernet. Unfortunately Lantronix seems to have no linux-support for these devices (I searched their web-site).

I haven't used that, but in the past I used a Cisco router that would convert 8 serial ports to 8 telnet sessions transparently. Ie, I could connect from any system just by telnetting to the remote router on ports 10000..10008, which would handle the conversion to serial port. It had other types of ports (x25, for instance), was expensive, and would be overkill for your situation, but... have you tried telneting to your machine? You probably need to know the port, but you could learn that by doing an "nmap" on it, or by running their program in windows and sniffing the protocol with ethereal aka wireshark.
