We can't get the serial board to work with an AT cable. Our theory is that Big Blue changed the pin assignments. Is this the case? If so, does anyone know the new pin assignments? Or where we can buy a cable? Or do we just have a bad card? Fred Sullivan SUNY at Binghamton Dept. Math. Sciences Binghamton, NY 13903 sullivan@marge.math.binghamton.edu First you make a roux!
