We recently bought an IBM "dual async card".  2 ports.  We don't know
if it works yet since we are still trying to find a pinout diagram to
make a cable.  It has db9 connectors, and evidently uses different pin
assignments than the AT.  Can you believe this?  We couldn't.  And just
try to find any useful information in the documentation that comes with
it.

Does anyone know the pin assignments?
