We have a MicroVax II computer and a Mac + computer and would like
to connect it together directly.   The Mac+ has a 8 pin RS422 port and the 
MicroVax II has a 25 pin RS232 port.   The Mac+ has the followings:

pin 1:  handshake
    2:  handshake/clock
    3:  transmit -
    4:  ground
    5:  receive -
    6:  transmit +
    7:  no connection
    8:  receive +

We have a 8 pin to 9 pin connector already.  Can anyone tell him
how should I connect the 9 pin connector to the 25 pin connector?

Please email your answer to me!   Thanks
