I connected a USB to serial adapter to the NSLU2 and it recognized it right away.
Output from dmesg.

I then went to the management screen and changed from simulator mode to WS23xx. Everything seemed to work fine and the base even linked to the temperature sensor out in the garage. Its not accurate but it is updating now.
Maybe next weekend I can connect the sensors outside and get things working there.
