How many serial ports can be configured on the HP400s & HP433s workstation under
Domain/OS?

A HP engineer informed me that this is limited to the number of AT slots
that are available in the ISA/EISA bus cage.  Only options I have are either
using the Serial/Parallel sold by HP (therefore I can only have 7 ports :-() or
writing a driver for the Stallion card (over 32 ports :-)).  Has this been done
before? I am very interested in hearing any other options.

Would you please email your response.

Thanx in advance,
Sebastien.
