Autoattach client in Linux console client

Submitted by hhhc on #1

Hi,

I have successfully setup the server and connect to it with Windows and use the devices. This was a test and worked well.
On server side I have also set AutoAttachToKernel=1 so that I can use it when not in use by a client (/dev/ttyUSB0)

But when I try to use the Linux (i386) on Ubuntu (Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-32-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 03:51:12 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux) I can connect my USB device (I kept the Windows client open and can see that the Linux client is connected) but how can I use the USB interface?
I would need to have it available like this: /dev/ttyUSB0

Thanks for your answer.

You use the serial interface just as if the serial device was plugged directly into your ubuntu setup. So you would need the correct driver for that usb device installed in ubuntu. That would then generate the /dev/ttyusb0 path which application would then use to access the serial. So install that driver into ubuntu and it should be ok then.
