I've done the sort of thing you're after using the RT's native 10 way connectors.

The pinout looks like this;
        ________
        |      -
NC      | 5  10 |  GND
RI      | 4   9 |  DC (data carrier)
RTS     | 3   8 |  CTS
DTR     | 2   7 |  DSR
TD      | 1   6 |  RD
        |      -
        --------
 

if I remember correctly this is looking into the hole in the RT. The D type pins are standard, I can get these for you if you can't find them elsewhere (check modem docs).

Works fine for me..
