>>what is the loopback connector for the DEFPA-DA?
It's a simple SC-SC cable. You plug the receiver of Port A to the
transmitter of Port B and the receiver of Port B to the transmitter of
Port A.

Watch out if you do this on NT however as my whole server balked
at starting, when it thought there was another node with with the
same server name.:-).

PS - This was somewhat permanent as I took off the loopback on the FDDI
and tried to just use the Ethernet but as long as the DEFPA-DA driver
was installed the NT SERVER refused to start. Had to remove all
Network drivers and re-add them again????
