[comp.sys.novell] Packet driver with slip

ehm1@wally.cc.msstate.edu (Eddie Mikell) (06/12/91)

This is probably not the best place to ask
this question, but I've seen it discussed
here before, so here goes....

Has anyone gotten the SLIP8250.com
packet driver to work?


Here's my procedure

I load the slip8250 program:

slip8250 0x62 slip 3 2fb 1200 (note: using com2 port).

It comes back indicating that it has successfully loaded.

I dial into the slip dial-in with procomm-plus, open
the dial-in line, and exit to dos without hanging up the
line.

If I execute a telnet or FTP, the program attempts to
work, but times out with a destination unreachable error.
Since I'm trying this in my office, it's easy to see it the
destination is really unreachable, so I know that the 
destination is up.

I'm using the
NCSA software, by the way.

I've tried reversing the above direction (Procomm first, the
slip), but no luck.


Any suggestions?????

Oops, sorry, guess the finger slipped.  I REALLY meant 2f8.  Yeah, that's
the ticket.....
