OK, our VAX is on its last leg, but I still would like to squeeze a little more service out of it by setting up a SLIP connection between it and a Xylogics AnnexIIe terminal server to connect to our campus ethernet. The Xylogics end seems pretty clear... but what do I need to do at the VAX end (750, vanilla 4.3 bsd unix) I tried: # slattach /dev/tty00 9600 ioctl (TIOCSETD): No such device and also: # ifconfig tty00 inet lclark annex31 ioctl (SIOCGIFFLAGS): no such interface (lclark and annex31 are defined in /etc/hosts) My kernel is config'd with the INET option. Do I need to add a pseudo-device ether? What else do I need to do? Thanks, Dan Note: This is a reposting with a wider distribution (na vs. pnw) and crossposting to comp.protocols.tcp-ip. -- dan@lclark.bitnet SM 0 A9F4 tektronix!reed!lclark!dan G 0
