thanks for the info (all of you!).
i think i will have alook in the primafoon shop as i don't think i will
make much cables in the future (i just buy cables in a shop wich crimps
them and makes them at the length you want while you're waiting).

i needed to get the cable one floor up because i got an old compaq
systempro server; wich i wanted to use as a router/masq linux box but
the thing is it makes an awfull lot of noise (huge fan) that i wanted to
get the thing out of my computing room.

bye!
