Need Sun RJ-45 console cable

Mac's used MiniDIN-8 connectors (female) only for serial.  No DB
anything.  Recall how small the "classic" mac was (is? I'm looking
at my OpenBSD Classic II over there...)

They followed the SCSI-1 spec with their DB25 (half of the 50 pin
SCSI are ground, you don't really need ALL those grounded at the
chassis-it's mostly to sheild signal pins from a neighbor and you
can do that within the cable.  However they made some "interesting"
interpretations of the SCSI command standard that were clarified
in SCSI 2.

So, anyone looking for a consultant who knows sendmail really really
well?  (along with ldap, dns and the usual suspects).
