Re: nullmodem communication

Knut,

    I remembered when I used Telix for PC and ProTerm for Apple II.  I used 
serial port (9 pin to 25 pin) cable for PC and (8 pin to 25 pin) cable for 
Apple IIgs.  Both 25 pin connectors are connected through NULL-Modem 
connector.  It is how it works fine less than 9600 baud using Z-Modem.  It 
should work well on Apple //e using SSC card.
    It would be helpful to use LAN port as network rather than NULL-Modem 
because it is big pain to do the troubleshooting.
