No, not AFAIK. I am guessing that both boxes have two com ports. I posted my original question because my contact at the colocation added a single crossover serial cable after both machines recently had sshd die[1] on them during concurrent make worlds[2]. Given the time zone differences, I wanted to explore possibilities before requesting a second cable and to prepare myself for the questions I expect him to have in reply. Thanks folks.

Once the serial consoles are in place, I'll be upgrading them one at a time. -- Dan Langille I'm looking for a computer job: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
