You could always get an AUI-to-10BaseT transceiver; they shouldn't be all that much on eBay. Be sure that you get the kind that have the RJ-45 jack and AUI port on opposite ends or that the one you get comes with an AUI cable. You want something like <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2019211293> or <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2018553495> or <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2018927679> instead of something like <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2019502672> without a cable. Actually, though, if you can get ahold of some AUI cables (these are probably cheaper than transceivers), I have some of the latter kind that I bought without cables, not realizing at the time I needed them. I could sell them to you cheap or trade a couple for a few short AUI cables if you're interested. Mail me off-list if you want to talk about this more. -- Bill Jonas * bill@billjonas.com * http://www.billjonas.com/ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin Attachment:
