I've never gotten serial to work in OS X either (I usually use ethernet
anyway), but I think it should work. A couple of things to try: make
sure you have set NCU (in it's preferences) to connect over you
uConnect. It should be an option. Also, make sure you have the uConnect
driver for Mac OS 9 in you Classic System, AND DO NOT HAVE THE OS X
DRIVER FOR THE SAME DEVICE INSTALLED. I hope this helps-
