Mamakos) Original-subject: DialUpIP SLIP is available Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN) The port of the CSNET/CREN DialUpIP SLIP code that I've been working on is now available for your use and abuse. I'd like to thank the beta test sites that I had which gave me feedback, problem reports and suggestions. The beta test sites should upgrade to the "real" version since the test versions will expire within 30 days. I have dropped it off at the following archive sites: sonata.cc.purdue.edu: /pub/next/submissions/SLIP_910613.tar nova.cc.purdue.edu: /pub/next/submissions/SLIP_910613.tar cs.orst.edu: /pub/next/submissions/SLIP_910613.tar umd5.umd.edu: /NeXT/Software/SLIP_910613.tar You should fetch this software with FTP in binary or image mode. Extract the file from the tar image. You'll see these files: rw-r--r-- 21/10 14914 Jun 13 00:51 1991 README.wn rwxr-xr-x 0/10 0 Jun 13 09:08 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/ rw-r--r-- 0/10 246387 Jun 13 09:08 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/SLIP_v0.tar.Z rw-r--r-- 0/10 693 Jun 13 09:05 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/SLIP_v0.info rw-r--r-- 0/10 1302 May 29 01:45 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/SLIP_v0.tiff rw-r--r-- 0/10 4807 Jun 13 09:08 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/SLIP_v0.bom rw-r--r-- 0/10 49 Jun 13 09:08 1991 SLIP_v0.pkg/SLIP_v0.sizes You will then want to invoke the Installer application on the SLIP_v0.pkg directory; make sure that you do this as root. This will install files in the directory /usr/dialupip. Once you've installed the package, you can look at the documentation in /usr/dialupip/Documentation.bshlf with the Digital Librarian as well as the the README.wn and Installation_Guide.wn files. Do a "List Titles" in DL to see what's available, or just look in /usr/dialupip. Please don't ask me to mail this software to you; its just too large and I really don't have the time. Please read the documentation before yelling for help, and look at the sample configuration files. You should already have access to a SLIP server or SLIP facility of some kind; if you don't then this software won't do you any good. louie -- comp.archives file verification umd5.umd.edu -rw-r--r-- 1 196 consult 278528 Jun 13 12:52 /NeXT/Software/SLIP_910613.tar found next-dialup-slip ok umd5.umd.edu:/NeXT/Software/SLIP_910613.tar
