I was unsuccessful trying to use AppleTalk--I kept messing up
the settings for my 802.11b connection--so I managed to get a
connection using serial alone.

I connected, and spent about ten minutes transferring a
couple of packages and a one-line NewtonWorks document to make sure I
could do so. Finished the transfer and shut down the PowerBook since
I was going to be visiting a sick relative in a hospital room for
most of the day. When I got back and restarted the PowerBook I could
not get NCU to connect via serial no matter what I tried.
*Something* seems to be incorrectly set, but I don't know what.

Thanks for the suggestions!
