Here is the info you wanted.

22- No pin

24 16
25- No pin
I've highlighted several connections because they are double connection
points. Alternatively, you could jumper 10 and 14 together on the DB-25
and run one wire to pin #4 on the DB-19. Do the same with the wires that
go to #3. If you would rather have me make the cable, send E-mail.

II just checked the pinout on a Duodisk cable. The numbers for the pins
are inside the plug by the pins, but I'll draw them for you.
DB 19 looking at the end of the cable:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
o o o o o o o o o o
o o o o o o o o o
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
------------------------------------------------
DB 25 looking at the end of the cable: (x = no pin)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
x o o o o o o o o o o o x
o o o o o o o o x o o x
14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
------------------------------------------------

I did check it carefully though.
