I got it working! But not with the ATTO card. An Adaptec SCSI card 2906 with a DV25 to Centronics 50 pin SCSI-1 cable is what worked. The downsides are that the card slower than the ATTO card when used with compatible SCSI devices. The Adaptec card might also be OS9-only since it relies on OS9...

I made a little more progress yesterday. I was able to find a download for ConfigTool version 3.38, which was designed for OSX 10.4 and 10.5. It was able to see my ATTO SCSI card and both busses and it DOES let me change the cards settings. For example, I was able to set the Termination setting...
