No serial port -> USB converter detected with hostusb command

[organetic]

Hi!

I'm trying to redirect one USB port for using an external faxmodem.
The problem is that, although the device is detected on the physical machine, it's not detected on the virtual one.
I've tried with one external ISDN adapter and it's detected and works ok.

Using one "Profilic" brand serial to USB converter, nothing is detected.

Using one Conexant USB, nothing is detected too.

Only the ISDN adapter is detected, but I need to use the FAX modem.
My only other option would be to redirect the serial port, but I believe there's no such option.

Please guide me on this.

Regards,
Nuno

we do not have such devices, so we cant test.

Dietmar,

I believe any standard USB modem will do for the test, since internally, it has one of these usb to serial converters.

Nuno

Ok, trying to figure out a way of using the faxmodem on Proxmox guests, I've stumbled on a freeware linux USB server.
The only problem is that I'm getting this when installing it:

node1:/tmp/usb-server# ./installer.sh install-server
*** Installing IncentivesPro USB Server + USB Client v.2.0.5
***  Copying files...
***  Starting daemon...
/usr/local/usb-server/bin/usbsrvd: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
??? Cannot start USB Server
 
*** Uninstalling IncentivesPro USB Server...
***  Stopping daemon...
***  Removing files...
***  Uninstallation successful!

Well, this is weird since I have double checked and this library is instaled

node1:/usr/lib# ls libstdc*
libstdc++.so.6    libstdc++.so.6.0.10

What should I do now?

I've tried this without success:

node1:/tmp# dpkg -i libstdc++6_4.4.1-3_amd64.deb
(Reading database ... 39380 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libstdc++6 4.1.1-21 (using libstdc++6_4.4.1-3_amd64.deb) ...

  Version of libgcc1 on system is 1:4.3.2-1.1.
dpkg: error processing libstdc++6 (--install):

maybe someone can shed me some lights on this.
