Help! I'm desperately trying to connect a MSDOS machine with my Amiga via
RS232. I've created a cable using only pins 2,3 and Ground; with 2 MSDOS
computers, it works, but it doesn't with MSDOS-Amiga. Then I made
another cable, using the following connection:

 
 25 pin      9 pin 
 
 2           3 
 3           2 
 4           7 
 5           8 
 6           6 
 7           5 
 8           1 
 20          4 
 22          9 

But it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? What software should I
use?
