I posted a message earlier, but it has been so delayed in getting
published, that I'm not sure it flew.

I'm running Microsoft XENIX 1.0 on an AT and would like to add a serial
port to the system, extending our current configuration of 2 ports.
I can't find any information on XENIX support for a third serial
port, nor on the actual hardware support of such a card.  Is this
possible with a minimal amount of effort?  I have a spare serial card
to play with, but not much time to deal with the problem.

Please respond via e-mail to brat@gatech.  Thanks in advance,

						Steven
