Message-ID: <mgoveDBMvF1.B0G@netcom.com> Organization: NETCOM On-line Communication Services (408 261-4700 guest) Date: Thu, 13 Jul 1995 02:40:13 GMT Lines: 18 Sender: mgove@netcom15.netcom.com I recently aquired an 8-port serial card. (Actually, rescued it from going to a dumpster..) I'm pretty sure its a Comtrol Hostess 550. Its got 8 NS16550AFN's on it (4 on the card, and 4 on a daughter board), The connecter box that attaches through a rather large cable to the back Says Comtrol Hostess Series. (Yeah, I'm really sure its a Hostess card..) Does _anyone_ have the dip switch settings for it? A few tips on configuring it for FreeBSD 2.0.5 would be helpfull too. Thanks Much, Matt -- Matthew E.
