The order of the boxes isn't important. Make sure that the
address number in the window on the back of the external
device has not changed, i.e. CD is still @ 6, etc. and make sure
that the terminator is installed on the last box in the chain. I am
assuming that these are all Sun boxes that have an internal device
terminated.
