| What's really cool is if you can locate an old terminal server and hack
| it into your setup so that the FreeBSD box doens't need a million serial
| ports in it.  You can find them on eBay and at garage sales(assuming you
| live in the right place).

I'd actually prefer this, really, but I live in the wrong place.  The garage
sales in Minnesota sell stuff for your garage, not for your machine room..

...and not having enough experience with old terminal servers I have no idea
what the "good" ones are.  It might just be easier to get the PHB to sign
off on a 16-port serial card.

For the record, though, what *are* the "good" ones?  I looked for the
Equinox mentioned earlier on on Ebay and didn't find any.
