console to com1

[Charles Menzes <charles@lunarmedia.net>]

my company's systems group has an interesting setup with their linux 
servers whereby each machine sends its console's stdout to the machine's 
com1. each machine has a cisco 2511 attached to its com1 so that by 
telnetting to the cisco, you can gain console access to the linux box 
through network access to the cisco device.
has anyone messed with this type of configuration, or something similar in 
which output was sent to something alternate than the video out?

thanks -c
