Has anyone come up with a version of slip for 386/ix host-based TCP/IP? The best would be something which lets a remote machine log in like a user, then start a slip session, sort of like uucp, but anything will do. I know how simple slip is, the problem would be getting the async and tcp drivers to talk to each other. Thanks, -- John R.

I too would be very interested in hearing if there is a version of SLIP for either 386/ix or AT&T V/386 3.2.1. I am lookinh at setting up a fulltime IP link with a VAX and SLIP looks like a logical choice for the internet connect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internet : howardl@wb3ffv.ampr.org | Howard D.

Ask your sales droid. If you are really in a hurry, or want to look at some crufty code, I can send you the SLIP package I wrote a couple of months ago. It never got beyond beta-test (I had no real use for it -- I wrote it as an excersise in STREAMS programming, before I wrote another driver for an experimental network interface I'm using), but apparently people have been using it successfully. /ji In-Real-Life: John "Heldenprogrammer" Ioannidis E-Mail-To: ji@cs.columbia.edu V-Mail-To: +1 212 854 5510 P-Mail-To: 450 Computer Science \n Columbia University \n New York, NY 10027

Streamlined Networks' TCP/IP product for Interactive 386/ix includes SL/IP support. The SL/IP driver pair grabs on to an existing serial line, so you can configure an account to pop into SL/IP mode when you log in. The driver has been tested with the base serial ports and several third-party multi-port cards. If you send your postal address, I'll send you our literature.
