Hello,
I am trying to boot an Sparc IPX without a keyboard or a monitor.   I have
a mini-din to db9 adapter and I have a null-modem cable going from the
adapter to my PC.  I have the pc set up to 9600,8n1.  I don't get any
output from the IPX on boot-up.  Any ideas?   Is there a special type of
Din to DB9 adaptor I need?
