Use remote serial port as a local one
I am trying to develop some software for my charge controller but the only device that I can use it with is my raspberry pi (just because I don't want my PC downstairs) anyways it communicates via /dev/ttyUSBX on the remote device.
I was hoping I could create a virtual serial port on my local machine and connect it via SSH preferably otherwise unencrypted is fine too. Also if it could be a daemon also would be nice so that way it would act like a complete passthrough.
I've looked into socat and ser2net but either no data was passed through or socat would close after one command was sent. So if you could give an example for the server and client it would be much appreciated.
