Wiring details
Thanks to Riseup for setting up our cables. Here are the details for creating an RJ45 to RJ45 cable that properly connects a Lantronix Serial Console server to the Baytech RPC-27 device.
,---- | this end plugs into the lantronix (where x is no wire): | x/WBr/WBl/O/x/Bl/WO/x = 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 `---- ,---- | and the other end (plugs into the baytech) is the standard 568B: | WO/O/WG/Bl/WBl/G/WBr/Br = 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 `---- ,---- | Baytech -> SLC | 1 (DTR) -> 7 (DSR) | 2 (GND) -> 4 (GND) | 3 (RTS) -> x | 4 (Tx) -> 6 (Rx) | 5 (Rx) -> 3 (Tx) | 6 (N/C) -> x | 7 (DSR) -> 2 (DTR) | 8 (DCD) -> x `----
Creating new users on odetta
Some notes from Riseup on creating new users:
- The max password length appears to be 8 characters, doing a longer password results in an "Invalid password" error.
- To set a password what you have to do is to create the user as 'admin', then logout of the 'admin' account and then login to the new user account (with no password), then run the 'password' command as that user.
- By default all new users have access to no recepticles.
