Hi: Does the PS-2 Model 50 have an alternate serial port? If it does, does anyone know of software that will run a program on a terminal connected to this serial port? Specifically, is there any standard database product that already has this capability? If it doesn't have an extra serial port, does anyone have any recommendations for serial port boards that can be used for this purpose? -Sundar

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? Fred Sullivan SUNY at Binghamton Dept. Math.
