Does this mean a regular serial cable to the V.24 port will not work?
It did not include a special IBM cable.

I suppose that nothing is impossible.  And perhaps I didn't bulldog the
problem enough in the past, (my excuse is that we had the comm cable).  We
had problems getting the short hauls to work directly from one 400 to
another without the comm cable.  Nothing to say that you cannot rig one
yourself as an intermediate between the 400 and the short hauls.  Have fun.

Actually, the goal is to get code ONTO the 400.  It's a development/test
box and has (currently) no production data.

You have to work with what you've got I guess.  My first 36-36 comm was
trying to set up a 5364 as a test/development machine.  But at least the OS
was current.
