I currently have my PC (running Linux) networked to my Amiga (running
AmiTCP) with a serial cable.  I'd like to connect them with a parallel
cable.  I've looked at the docs for the PLIP drivers on both sides
and the cables seem to be designed differently.  Can someone tell me if
the drivers are compatible as is?  If so, how do I wire the cable?  If
not, what needs to be changed in the drivers?  Thanks.
