I have seen several articles discussing running NCSA telnet over SLIP, but I have not seen what is actually required for this. I have looked through the documentation for NCSA Telnet version 2.2 and they only mention ethernet boards that are supported. We have SLIP running on a Sun 3/160, and I would like to be able to use a PC to dial in and do FTP. Could someone please point me towards some documentation that might help me figure this out? Also if NCSA Telnet is not the answer, what would you recommend? Thank You. -- Paul A.

It includes in the docs somewhere mention of packet driver support. We are running the 3C501, 3C503, 3C523 packet drivers with NCSA on top and everything works great. There is a SLIP packet driver I believe. --- Michael R.
