Hmm. Cisco calls the cables he's describing rollover cables. Personally, I'd
rather carry lots of db9s than a bunch of ethernet cables.

For normal computers put a crossover db9 or db25 on them. For cisco, put on
a rollover. For the computer connecting to them put on a straight through
db9.

Actually, I do everything with db9s and keep db25 to db9 converters on hand.

I keep all this in my bag o' tricks, which reminds me, I forgot to post that
I'd found it. That goes out next.

They're around the broadway underpass on Country Club ( 220 S. ). They're in
a building with purple trim that's actually hard to miss. West side of the
road. I think they're south of the underpass.
