Is there any slip-driver in SR10.2 or something in PD ?
Thanx
Bernhard
P.S. where to find the socket-library ?

Yes there is. You can specify a sl0 device with ifconfig. You then run slip
on a seperate subnet to the other side.
Since Apollo does not support proxy ARP you can't get the other end of
the slip to look like a system on the ring subnet.
Hence you 'loose' a whole subnet.
It does work confortable. I used it for a while running Sun's PC-NFS.
Don't expect a very high performance, but even mounting disks and using
printers worked well. (Not fast :) )
Ciao,
Willem Jan

It's in one of the global libraries I guess. Just compile and you'll get it. -- Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...
