Localtalk now has locking connectors (thanks to Apple for
finally doing that) so that the network will not break.
The one part that does not seem to lock is the din-8 connector
which plugs into the back of the Mac itself.

In an open lab, these seem to come out of the back of the
machine in the mere blink of an eye.

Does anyone have any good suggestions for keeping the
din-8 connectors connected (other than superglue)?
