I posted a couple of weeks ago about trouble cascading my OmniView console switches with my FreeBSD servers. I finally found the clue on the OmniView web site FAQ (I just wish it were in the manual). It turns out that the model of switch I have (4-port PS/2) requires that the switches be cascaded using a 5-pin DIN (AT-style) keyboard cable, even though everything else uses PS/2 connectors. They work like a charm now. Nice switches too. FYI, in case anyone else was stuck with the same problem.
