    I bought one of those prolific 2303 usb to serial adapters from deal extreme. Windows will recognize it, I installed the drivers. It sets it to com 4. The problem I'm having is I can't get any output on it when connected to a Sun server. Does anyone know if these work in that way or just normal serial devices like gps? I've tried both hyper terminal, and tera term. I found one other user reporting the same thing but he was running linux. Maybe it draws to much power when connected that way?
