Problem persists. NB: Problem does not affect NS202. I can use that without concern. >Once you have done the above & if you are still having difficulties, >try disabling your NS proxies, I've seen weird things happen with >proxies. Hmmm, what does it all mean?? >If disabling proxies works, we can look further into tuning NS. OK I have disabled the proxy setting and will have to wait till later today to test again. (But the same proxy setting in NS202 seems to not be affected). it takes so long to test these things...

I want to bring the 50pin IDC connector out to the rear of the PC for a scanner. To do this I need: 50pin IDC -> female Centronics 50, (SCSI 2) or female DB25 rear plate. Anyone got one of this?

If the case doesn't allow this you could also simply take one of the slot blanking panels out and bring it out that way. Otherwise you're looking at a custom cable of some sort. If you know someone with a HP server, they supply such a cable ready for expansion, clipped to the base of their 4000 and 6000 models. Cheers/2 Ed.
