Is there a way to keep a serial connection alive using ckermit.
Is there a way to output characters when in the connect mode
without running a backround process on the machine you are connected
to... I can see using a backround process that periodically uses
apc escape sequence to output a character, but I have used backround
proccesses with "sleeps" before and my isp started looking at the files
in my account - they thought it was indicative of a ping attack and
generally suspicious.
Is my only real option to run a script from the command line?
THANKS
