I have been trying to get CSLIP (the BETA test version) running on a Sun 386i
under SUNOS 4.0 for some time now. I have downloaded slipware.tar, but it
doesn't seem to have any patches for the 386 SUNOSes. I am at the point where
I have been able to get a VISUAL-640 X-terminal to ping the sun successfully,
but a telnet session connects, and then hangs. I tried a 386SX PC running
NCSA telnet, and the message window claims both bad checksums and some
fragmented packets, and the sun eventually times the connection out.
I have then tried building CSLIP on a Sun 3/280 file server running SUNOS 4.1,
and the makefile building the OS claims that both /sys/sun3/machine/param.h
and slcompress.c have a #define BCOPY which conflict with each other.
(Oddly enough the #define BCOPY in param.h is for a Sun 3-260, not 3/280,
or is a 280 just a faster 260?)
I would like to converse with anyone who has gotten CSLIP running on either
a 3/280 or a 386i. Thanx.
