Hah, finally. Ok, I think I have this figured out. It
looks like the simplest thing to do is to use a T
connector (which I have (thanks zgs)).

The T connector connects to the BNC on the Thinnet card.

The cable from the T connector has an AUI endpoint,
which connects to an AUI adapter.

The AUI adapter is like my Asante AUI->10baseT adapter
(thanks again, zgs), which converts the connection to
10baseT.

Am I missing anything?
Do I need to cap the naked side of the T connector in
some fashion?

All these questions, and more, I hope to have answered by
*you* guys! The people with all the experience!!! :-)
