Being a U5, its used, which means someone could have changed the baud rate of the serial port. :) I've got two U10s, a SS20, and 220R in my basement^H^H data center. ;-) If you can use a keyboard & monitor to get to the ok prompt, then you can check the speed of the serial port. I can't remember the command right now, but a search on the web should point in the right direction. I don't recall if the U5s are like the U10s in this respect, if so, then don't break the serial connection once the machine is booted. Otherwise it'll do the equivalent of stop-a. My main mail server was up over 500 days when I had to move things around. I accidently pulled the serial cable, damn it. :)
Ah, well, there's the problem you see. I'm actually trying to get a serial login as the last lot apparently set the console to some ridiculous resolution that no monitor here can handle. It's looking pretty unlikely that I'm even going to get that though, this one might have to go for scrap. :( MC
