I have a 30 metre length of thicknet (10base5) with screw on fittings at each end and a vampire tap in the middle. As the cable gets dragged around from LUG fest to LUG fest, I expect the vampire tap to eventually fail and damage the cable. So, I am looking for someone (preferrably) in Sydney, Australia) who is able to break the cable in half and fit new screw fittings. -- Terry Collins {:-)}}} Ph(02) 4627 2186 Fax(02) 4628 7861 email: terryc(a)woa.com.au www: http://www.woa.com.au WOA Computer Services <lan/wan, linux/unix, novell> "People without trees are like fish without clean water"
