- While we're on the subject: does anybody know the IBM part number for
- the modem cable for the IBM 10 pin [rectangular] builtin serial port?
-
- I can't seem do find it in the documentation.
-
- Also: does anybody know the new number for IBM uucp login to technical
- support? The one published in the 3.2 documentation doesn't answer.
- It's an 823 exchange, and IBM has moved to the 838 exchange.
