According to this ...

http://www.netbsd.org/ports/macppc/faq.html#badserial

The serial ports on macppc are rather unstable.

I can't find the date on the FAQ, so I don't know how long ago this 
assessment was made. Can we confirm if this is still the case?

For what it's worth, I run 3.1.1_PATCH on a beige G3/333MHz (OF 2.4).

What I'd like to do is hook up a null modem between the mac and a Wintel 
box so I could run SSH sessions from the Wintel side.

From what I can see here ...

http://lowendmac.com/ppc/g3b.shtml

It uses a DIN-8 GeoPort connector. The PC has a DB9 port. I'm still trying 
to trace down a cable that could link the two boxes, but does anybody have 
experience with a hook-up like this? Does it work?

TIA,
