Orac cable pinouts required

The cable is a RS232 to RS423 the old type that has a round connector. I can't buy this type of cable any more? Can anyone supply the pinouts / Drawing

Sounds like a BBC <-> Orac cable

BBC had a 5 pin round connector
Orac had a 25 pin D type

The Orac is pinned out the same as a 25 pin serial port of a PC

2 - Tx out of orac
3 - Rx into orac
7 - Gnd

Can't rememeber the handshake pins but you get the idea....
