That is sure handy to know. I'm sure the Gatorbox was configured from
wherever it came from. Hopefully there is a reset-to-default setting.
If you have a 68K Mac hanging around, there are some tools you can install
on it to configure the GatorBox. There's also, as someone else pointed out,
a telnet interface, but the Mac-based tools are easier to use. They're also
the only way (AFAIK) you can upgrade the GatorBox's firmware to the final
version.
This page has some useful config information:
http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~pcfe/Gatorbox/
I downloaded the config software, firmware upgrades, and other stuff a while
back and put them up on my website:

(If you don't have a 68K Mac, they're even cheaper than Apple IIs nowadays,
which puts them in the right price range for purchase as "Apple II
peripherals." :-) eBay currently has a IIci starting at $5 and an LC II
starting at $10, both with no bids.)
