Check out the statserial utility; statserial will show the status of the pins of the serial port, like a software breakout box.
Good one - thanks Adam. I'll let you know.
The main difference between a working connection (null-modem to another device) is that DCD is raised, whereas it isn't when I try the SAN switch.
I haven't been able to try a straight through cable though - I need a gender bender.
OK, problem solved - it needed a straight through cable, not a null-modem.
