How to connect a Cisco terminal server to the console port of another router?

Question by Ronny: How to connect a Cisco terminal server to the console port of another router?
I have a Cisco 3600 router (routerA) with async NM32 module and octal cables which are connected to a patch panel. I have a straight-through connected between the patch to the console port of another router (routerB).
I cannot access the routerB from the terminal. What cable should be used between the patch panel and routerB? Rollover?
