Hi everyone,

I have two server PC's running Linux-HA which I would like to connect
via a serial cable in order to give Heartbeat an extra channel of
communication.

I will be creating this cable myself, and as such I would like to know
what the pin-out configuration details are for this setup.

The reason im asking is that every website I have read so far
regarding this subject seems to have a different set of details, and
if possible I would like to get it right the first time :)

Any information anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
