branch-out cable to increase the number of serial port

Hello,

About 2 years back, someone point me to a website (I think it's probably
in Sun's website) that we could fabricate a branch-out 25-way V cable
(ie one DB25 to two DB25) such that when we connect this cable to
our E450's ttya port, it will now give us two serial ports (ie ttya & ttyb).
If I"m not wrong, you'll have to do drvconfig for it to take effect.

I've lost that website. Can someone email it to me.

What about a SunBlade 100 that has only one serial port - does
anybody has the cabling's pin configuration/diagram. Most
appreciate if someone can point me to the relevant url

Thanks
GOh
