[PLUG] logging input via /dev/ttyS0

[Keith Morse]

I've been researching this for a little bit now and still don't have an 
answer yet.  I have an older phone switch that has a DB-25 connect 
originally designed for a serial printer.  From my reading of the manual 
for the phone switch (KSU), this service is called "SMDR" and all it did 
was record the transactions the KSU went thru in the course of answering 
phone calls.

Rather than using a serial printer, I'd like to capture the output via a 
serial connection to a linux host.  I know I can use a terminal program 
such as minicom or kermit.  But I'd like to know if the input to 
/dev/ttyS0 can be logged directly thru the use of a pipe to a service such 
as syslogd?

Thanks for any input PLUGgers can provide.
