There's one glaring omission in this "standard": It should have suggested creating a set of short Male-Female twist cables! This would allow you to use standard Cat-5 for all longer runs, then adding one of the twisters at either end, instead of having to crimp up non-standard cables. BTW, Sun use RS232 (DB9) to RJ-45 adapters on all the console cables I've seen. :-) Terje -- - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching" _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
