A 486
or very low end pentium PC running win95 and something like girder
?
1 yup
in fact more than one if you want
3 yup
or even several ports
5 yup
if you can find them
Alternatively you
could do this with a Tini, siteplayer or rabbit although all of these would
need software and probably hardware development
work.

with serial out?
I have a use for a "thing" with the
following characteristics - does such a thing
exist?
1: Ethernet port
2: DHCP, or the ability to hard-wire an IP
address
3: Serial port
4: Ability to send arbitrary
serial commands out on the serial port in response to network
requests
5: Vanishingly
cheap
When I say "network
requests", I mean something that either an http client, or a Windows
command-line so CGI-script on my intranet server (need not be http) could
send.
Something that came
with a 32-bit windows application that went
> SerialSend <IP-address>
<String>
would be
ideal :-)
I have a
couple of devices around the house that can be serial-controlled, and
would like to control them over ethernet...
The serial control requirements are typically simple,
but it _mustn't_ be something hard-wired into the device at "programming
time" - it must be capable of modification on the
fly...
Regards,
Mark
