Just a thought. There are two main builds of serial port <--> motherboard connector cables. One goes across the 10 pin mboard connector like 13579 2468- and the other goes 12345 6789- The easiest way to get it right is to use the connectors supplied. Otherwise, look it up in your manual and get a meter and check your cable. -- Chris Adams - [EMAIL PROTECTED] System Administrator - Renaissance Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
