Sorry, I had assumed my use of quotes referencing "AUI"
in the subject line would have alluded to the fact that the classic
does NOT use the "standard" AUI connector.  I am looking for
the pinout so that I can *cannabilize* some "traditional" transceivers
(with DB15P AUI connectors) to mate to the classic's oddball
connector.

The classic uses a connector that resembles a SCSI-2 (high density)
connector -- but with fewer pins (though the same *pitch*!).

This link has *some* promise:

http://www.hardwarebook.net/connector/network/sunaui.html

though it makes no mention of the audio signals *alleged* to
also be avaiable on the connector (the connector has far too many
pins to support *just* the AUI functionality)

Thanks!
