All the old 4000's I have use a straight through serial cable. Steve

As usual in this case, I suspect I have a cable problem. I thought I needed a straight through DB9-DB25 modem cable, but it doesn't seem to work. I want to make sure I have the right cable before I start chasing other possibilities. Is this in fact the right cable? I have searched the archives and looked at several CCO links without a clear answer (maybe I'm just not smart enough to understand what I'm reading :-)). What I'd really like is something ultra-simple, like "db-25 pin2 to db-9 pin3" and so on. Can anyone point that out to me? TIA.
