NONE.  Mac cables DO NOT WORK with NeXTstations (or any '040
NeXTs).  Specifications for what you need appear on the zs(4)
manual page, which is reproduced in hardcopy form in the back of
_Network and System Administration_ (so those of you who only
have 2.x-Crippled can't whine about not having man pages).

I'm sure there are several...  We found a place in the San
Francisco Bay Area that makes custom cables, and had them
take care of our serial and SCSI needs:

	Cable Connections
	557 Salmar Ave., Suite B
	Campbell, CA  95008

	(408) 379-9224
