I am trying to get slip to run at speeds greater than 9600 baud. The problem is that when I type: slattach tty2 19200 it gives me an error. Going through smit, it tells me that I need a dialing string. I thought I should be able to just give the baud rate. Any ideas?

Any ideas? > Joubert What update level are you running? The "needs a dialstring" bug should have been fixed by now. I reported it (for a customer) before I left level 2. Also, I never had a problem with just doing: "slattach <tty> <speed>" from the command line... Are you sure you have the tty listed in the "/usr/lib/uucp/Devices" file (as required by the missing documentation). Try this.. add the following line to the "/usr/lib/uucp/Devices" file: Direct tty2 - Any direct See if that keeps you from getting an error on the slattach. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |The views expressed herein, are the sole responsibility of the typist at hand| +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |UUCP: pensoft!robin | |USNail: 701 Canyon Bend Dr. | | Pflugerville, TX 78660 | | Home: (512)251-6889 Work: (512)343-1111 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
