Overview

    Conserver is an application that allows multiple users to watch a
    serial console at the same time. It can log the data, allows users to
    take write-access of a console (one at a time), and has a variety of
    bells and whistles to accentuate that basic functionality. The idea is
    that conserver will log all your serial traffic so you can go back and
    review why something crashed, look at changes (if done on the console),
    or tie the console logs into a monitoring system (just watch the
    logfiles it creates).  With multi-user capabilities you can work on
    equipment with others, mentor, train, etc. It also does all that
    client-server stuff so that, assuming you have a network connection,
    you can interact with any of the equipment from home or wherever.
