Has anyone had PC-NFS's dialup slip working with anything other than a SUN host. Specifically, I would like to get it working on a 486 box running SCO Unix 3.2.2.

We are running SLIP on an ANNEX II terminal server @ 9.6 connected to an IBM-PC which is running PC-NFS. Our connection is "Direct" so we did not have to deal with the "Dial-up" dialogue. Only one problem so far, other than getting the Annex configured correctly: NFSCONF removed the gateway options from the setup-screen -- we simply added the gateway command to networks.bat. -- "I will fight no more never again", Chief Joseph (of the Nez Pierce Indians) "In war there is no right side and no winning side", me -- Richard Perlman |*| perl@pbseps.pacbell.com |*| (415) 545-0233

If the "/x" (SLIP mode) switch is set on the PCNFS.SYS line in CONFIG.SYS, we simply ignore all routing and pump every packet down the line. What's to route in this situation?
