communicate with serial port (ttyS0)

[Shaun Schulze]

Hi 

I am running Debian/Linux kernel 2.4.17.
I need to communicate between custom hardware and my
python script via a serial port, eg. ttyS0, at
115.2kb/s.
I would like to know how to receive and send data to
and from the serial port. I would also like to know
how to set the baud rate of the serial port to
115,2kb/s. If anyone has some examples it will also be
much appreciated.

Thank you 
Shaun
