At work we have an old linux box that runs scripts on a program called Term that executes scripts to access a PABX meridian phone system. My job is to do an upgrade to a newer machine with a uptodate version of Linux.

I have installed Fedora Core as my Linux O.S I then connected it to the 16 port DIGI box EM and have successfully installed the driver for it. Then i installed Minicom 2.1 software. I have to use Minicom instead of Term

The other box is still active until i get the new machine up and running. Both are on the network. I need to make my connection files for minicom and change the scripts to execute minicom instead of term.

I have all the *.con files i'm going to use that are currently using Term. I have also been asked to check a .profile autoexec file whatever that means.

I can cd into /usr/term and cat the *.con files.

Any ideas what my next step is to execute the files using minicom on the new machine instead of using term on the old machine.
