[comp.sys.hp] Wanted: SLIP oer 9600-baud modems

wcs@alice.UUCP (Bill Stewart) (09/29/88)

I'm interested in connecting two distant TCP/IP sites with some kind
of 9600 baud modem connection or possibly x.25.  I assume the simplest
is to use slip over 9600 baud modems, but this may not be realistic.

What I've got for hardware is a couple of HP 800-series computers and
Telebit original-Trailblazer modems; I'd like to minimize additional
purchases, and working over dialup would be nice but not critical.
Has anybody tried this, and has it worked?

Thanks;  Bill Stewart, ho95c.att.com!wcs AT&T Bell Labs Room 2G218, Holmdel NJ

I have a similar requirement here, except that we are running Ultrix on
a couple of Microvaxen.  The two sites I want to interconnect are
just down the street from each other, and there is a 9600 baud
asynch line in place between them.  Has anyone successfully
installed and used SLIP under Ultrix?
