[SunHELP] sparc 10 question

[Steve Wingate]

I also had a tough time finding the right serial combination for my
Sparc 20. I finally ordered a cable from UltraSpec and connected my
laptop to the sparc using SecureCRT console connection with vt100
emulation. Here is a link to the cable that I bought.
