Hello! On these routers, the only capable method of attaching the devices that we use to access the One-Wire devices is the serial port that the routers wear. Originally they were used (or were supposed to have been used) by the designers for debugging and other methods. On a website that explains in slightly greater detail the methods for attaching a serial port to them, there are better photographs and a completely more involved discussion then anything we've explored here. ----- Gregg C Levine [email protected] "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
