RE: Weirdo Twinax Address Problem

[Lurton Keel <Lurton.Keel@xxxxxxxx>]

The best solution is to replace all that twinax (1mbs or 2mbs) with
100/10mbs cat 5 cable, a switching Ethernet hub and some cheap 100/10 mbs
Ethernet NIC cards.  Your users will love you.  Then you can hook up the
twinax only devices one per port on your controller.

                Jeff,

                        What type system do you have, and what names are
assigned to the
                workstation controllers.   Some of the 6xx systems supported
a finite number
                of connections on WSC 1, (28 I think), and then 40 on WSC 2
- n to the
                system max.   What you are calling port 7 could be on WSC 2
and Port 0 would
                be on WSC 1 which could be full.

                        Jeff Silberberg...
