Better yet, use ssh instead.  That way, the world won't know your enable
password. ;)


However, if you're talking about doing this using a rollover cable and
smoething akin to a Keyspan USB-> serial adapter, you might want to 
try the Carbonized version of ZTerm.  Works just fine.

Someone may want to tell Apple that, if you aren't going to supply
tip(1) and cu(1) manpages or binaries, it's probably a good idea to
remove references to said binaries from the other manpages. 

<sarcasm>
  But then, why bother editing manpages?  Nobody reads _those_.
