I had never done it before buying a soekris, but I found it simple
enough, especially because I encountered well commented configuratin
files:

    /etc/inittab (the soekris one) contains:

    # Example how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
    #
    T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 57600 vt100
    #T1:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100

and I used minicom on the laptop I used, with a configuration file,

    /etc/minicom/minirc.dfl containing:

    # Machine-generated file - use "minicom -s" to change parameters.
    pu port             /dev/ttyS0
    pu baudrate         57600
    pu bits             8
    pu parity           N
    pu stopbits         1

I hope that will help you.

Best regards,
