Oh now come on, I was doing good to remember the acronyms.  If I am
remembering correctly, the sparc and the Mac are both DCE (I am vaguely
remembering Data Control and Data Terminal as the source for the Acronym) 
I think that the stupid stuff (the modem/terminal, or whatever ) is DTE,
while the smart stuff is DCE.  To hook a DCE to a DCE you need the cable
with the Null, which I think is the Mac Printer cable.  Don't quote me on
this, like I said earlier, I try cables till something works.
