[comp.sys.sun] SLIP + SUN3 + T2500

Hello net land,

Can someone knowledgeable summarize what software should be used to run
SLIP on a:

	1) Sun3 running 4.0.3, with T2500
	2) Sun3 running 4.1, with T2500

The questions I have at this time are:

	Which version of SLIP to use? Or should we use CSLIP?
	Which tip to use?
	Which routed to use? Or which gated to use?
	Must one run dns?
	Do things work better on 4.0.3 or 4.1?
	What else is needed?
	Is there a place to get the whole package from one place?

Can we get all the necessary software from UUNET or does one need to look
elsewhere?  I'm new to SLIP and what's necessary to make it work right.
Could someone who has SLIP running well on a Sun3 summarize his(her)
experience?

Thanks VERY MUCH in advance!
