Tony : Thanks for the offer : one of the nice guys at fairlight ESP confirmed that the mfx cable is two centronics 24 pin plugs with straight through (pin to pin) cabling. Im Trying to find somewhere to source the centronics plugs (CPC in the uk have sockets, but not plugs) I did ask peter a while ago, but peter got busy, then I got busy, and I dont have a current email address for him. Id much prefer peter to make me a cable, as my soldering is terrible (they used to call me "The Blob" at university LOL) but i dont have a current email address for peter. (does anyone ?) Cheers, for your offer though. --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "" <linear226@e...> wrote: > > Hi Arron, > > I could get you the pin config from my mfx cable, or ask Peter Wielk to make you one. > > Regards Tony > > > > > --- On Thu 06/02, Eight to Infinity (Arron) < arron@8... > wrote: > From: Eight to Infinity (Arron) [mailto: arron@8...] > To: Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com > Date: Thu, 02 Jun 2005 13:17:56 -0000 > Subject: [Fairlight-CMI] Web server > > <html><body> > > > <tt> > With reference to the web server idea, I dont think any web server is <BR> > going to mount a native os9 partition.
