virtual console on serial port

[Renai LeMay <renail@ausisp.net>]

Hi,

I have an old sun box here (Netra s20), and apparently it outputs console 
data via it's serial port. Now given the cables I have, what I would like to 
do is this:

Plug a serial cable from the Netra's serial cable into the serial port on the 
back of my linux box, and have the display from the sun box outputted to a 
virtual console on said linux box.

What I would like to know is:

	1. is this possible
	2. how do I tell Linux what to do?

thanks in advance for any help with this somewhat unusual problem,

Renai
