Does anyone have any recommendations for good cheap multiport serial controllers ? (Available in Australia preferred) I'd like to support at least 4 ports at 9.6k, but may need up to 16 at 9.6k, or 19.2k. If anyone on the list has run NOS with a largish number of serial ports, I'd be keen to benefit from your experience if you wouldn't mind sharing some of it. Thanks Terry ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Mar 1994 18:22:15 -0800 From: Ken Koster Subject: NOS as a dialin slip server/terminal server, serial i/o To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu >I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has used NOS as a dialin slip server >or as a terminal server for a largish number of serial ports (4+). >Does anyone have any recommendations for good cheap multiport serial >controllers ?

The 4-com 4 port board runs around $100 US and is the equivelant of 4 16550s and can run at speeds upto 115.200b. It also allows you the use of the higher interrupts found on AT class machines. I'm not sure of it's availability in Australia. >If anyone on the list has run NOS with a largish number of serial ports, >I'd be keen to benefit from your experience if you wouldn't mind sharing >some of it. One of the main routers in the Seattle area 'seanvg.ampr.org' is running two of the 4-port boards. Seven of the ports are at 9600 and one is 19200. We expect to raise most of the ports to 19200 soon. This is on a 386sx 16mhz machine running a version of JNOS that I modified to support eight asy/slip ports. I plan on sending Johann the necessary mods so he can include them in the standard distribution. The changes are trivial. >Thanks >Terry 73's, Ken - N7IPB ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Mar 1994 01:16:25 -0700 (MST) From: Tim Baggett Subject: nos to bpq update To: nos-bbs@hydra.carleton.ca From: Paul H Launspach hi all, i uploaded a miner fix to my nos2bpq code to ftp.ece.orst.edu and uscd.edu. it is jnbpq14.zip. this fixes a problem with the iface send cnt display in dobpqstat. i have updated the doc file and done a little house cleaning. see jnbpq14.txt for more info. thanks 73 ps: i can be reached care of wbaggett@nmsu.edu or patsyl@tenet.edu. paul h launspach n5faz internet: none (sigh) amprnet: n5faz@n5faz.ampr.org cis : 71046,76 amprnet: n5faz@nmsugw.ampr.org packet : n5faz @ w5es.#wtx.tx.usa , ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Mar 1994 06:09:58 -0500 From: jnz@world.std.com (Joseph N Zucco) Subject: Subscription Request To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu Please subscribe me to the tcp-group mailing list.
