Ok. I now have the boards up and running between machines, but I'm having a problem with silo overflows almost constantly on all the currently running ports. I'm using pppd (options listed below) to set up a number of ppp sessions between two pentium pro 200s. I originally tried to run 32 of them at 115200. It failed miserably. I then dropped back to 16 at 115200. Then to 16 at 57600. Still got silo errors constantly. At this point, I thought it might be a flow-control issue, so I tried to make some changes to /etc/ppp/options to allow for flow control, but I'm not getting anywhere. Perhaps someone can give me some more useful information? /etc/ppp/options ---------------- -bsdcomp -defaultroute persist crtscts I've also tried xonxoff as an option (both ends are identical except for the persist line - only the call negotiator has this). i've also tried to use /etc/rc.serial to set some initial and lock states (including most variations on the crtscts, ixon, and ixany flags). Any help would be appreciated. -Brian
