USB Serial Port

[Mike Dwiggins]

This may be easy for some but, all of my Linux experience has been on 
servers and I am just now trying to move into the desktop side.

I am trying to use a USB to Serial adapter by Belkin for a needed 
application at work.  I plan on using PuTTy as my comm plaform but, I 
cannot figure out what port id the device is being given or if I need to 
configure it in some manner.

Anyone know a simple way or the correct place to look for info about 
this on the Web?
