Hi

I'm using AmiTCP on an A3000 with cslip, and the ohter side FreeBSD2.0.

Works great!

But, How can I use the parallel Interface with tcp/ip on FreeBSD
with PLIP on my Amiga? 

The Problem is a cable, i think ... LapLink-Cable is needed for 
FreeBSD (uses 4 Data-Lines) and PLIP on Amiga uses 8 DataLines.

Any Ideas for connects between this graet OperatingSystems?

Lars.
