Here are the pinouts for a Lisa from the modem port to a stadard RS-232C modem
connector.

XL    to      Modem
===================
 2     <=>      2
 3     <=>      3
 7     <=>      7
 6     <=>      8

That worked for me, if you want to see a full XL BBS, you can call MacCircles.
It is running off of a Lisa with 2 profiles under MacWorks with RRH.  I ran
my BBS on my XL for 8 months without a problem (except those found with any
RRH system).
