I have a Zip, SyQuest and a scanner on the SCSI bus and no amount of SCSI voodo ever got them to work right. The short version of the story is that I picked up an 8100 (upgraded to G3) for $100 on e-Bay to run the SCSI peripherals, and have the Pismo and the 8100 connected via ethernet (on a hub) to the DSL and a Laserwriter 630. Inelegant...but a solution. ===== Doug Behr [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
