Are there any applications that run on Linux (prefer Ubuntu if possible) to act as a data collector for serial to Ethernet?

Asked by schmiggles in Linux Networking, Ubuntu

We have several machines in our production area with serial interfaces that are connected to Lantronix WiBox RS232 to TCP/IP converters.  The WiBox can be configured as a server to send any output to an IP address and port.  Currently we are using Aggsoft's Advanced TCP/IP Data Logger so the output is dumped to a text file. (see http://www.aggsoft.com/tcpip-data-logger.htm)

Is there a way to do with this a Linux distro?  Are there any Linux applications that can listen on a port and output the data to a plain text file?
