[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] NCSA Telnet and SLIP

bussiere@DMI.USherb.CA (Luc Bussieres) (06/14/91)

	I'm trying to install NCSA Telnet over a SLIP connection. 
I've previously installed KA9Q NOS with this SLIP connection and
it worked perfectly. Is there something special to do to configure 
NCSA Telnet?  

	When I have tested it, I used the packet driver configuration 
and I install the slip8250 packet driver using the packet driver class
to 1 ( this is the only one the NCSA Telnet seemed to recognize ). Is
this a correct configuration?  The slip server is an annex III configure
to allow the slip compression. Do somebody have it working and can send 
me the working configuration.

					Thanks

Sounds like your copy of NCSA Telnet doesn't recognize type 6 (SLIP)
packet drivers.  Changing the class to 1 isn't going to work because that
will cause NCSA Telnet to generate Ethernet frames over your SLIP link.

I am leaving the employ of Clarkson as of June 30.  Hopefully this email

 Try with NCSA version from Clarkson, called CUTCP, it is on 
 sun.soe.clarkson.edu I think....


 I've trying it with SLIP and Cisco and it works very well, after some minor
  problems relationes with MTU ( I set it to 256 on the PC and 1024 on the Cisco
  and then it works without fragmentation )
