When connecting a headless sun server to an Etherlite terminal server,
use the following cabling pin-outs:

Etherlite RJ-45 to Sun server DB-25
===================================
When looking at the female RJ-45 to DB-25 modular adapter, from the RJ-45
side, the wires are numberred:

With a twisted-pair Ethernet cable, use TYPE 1
With a rolled cable use TYPE 2 (a rolled cable is a crossover or a
cisco console cable, or a modular line cord [for telephones])

TYPE 1
RJ-45    DB-9
---------------------
1     7
2     4
3     3
4     5    yeah, thats right.... tie both these to 5

6     2
7     6
8     8
      9

TYPE 2
RJ-45    DB-9
---------------------
