	That's close, but what I'm looking for clips around the rails, not
into the hole, which is round. This looks almost exactly like it, at the
bottom of the page...

 You would be happier with the type of fastener that uses real machine
 screws rather than the sheet-metal type screws that some racks have.
 There is a nice picture of them on the Tinnerman Web site at

 Of course, now that I think of it, DEC used something like that.
 It was another brand of racks that used the sheet-metal screws.
