Thanks a bunch! | |This setup will not work, since both computers have SCSI ID=7 and will |interfere with each other. it should work, if you've got the dark gray cable (the same color as the pb) normally, you wouldn't need a terminator between the devices. the 604's got termination and the pb's got it too. -- the pb's got 'weak' termination and you might not get a 'good' connection if you add another resistor pak, or terminator. if i'm wrong, or if you doubt, check yr pb manuals. it should be in there. | |/Olof |-- |WHOAMI: Olof Backing EMAIL: |WHERE: Royal Institute Of Technology, Stockholm obg@nada.kth.se |SNAIL: Skarpnacks Alle 45, 3tr, S-128 33 SKARPNACK, Sweden |VOICE: + 46 8 931619 -- <b>rick ochoa</b>: welcome to the future, spaceboy! <br><a href="mailto:ochoarn@post.drexel.edu">email.</a> <br><a href="http://144.118.251.250/rick">visit.</a>
