Korty" Reply-To: korty@physics.purdue.edu X-Mailer: MH 6.8.3 #6[UCI] (london.physics.purdue.edu) Date: Fri, 29 Mar 1996 12:39:00 -0500 Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Greetings. I want to get SLIP/PPP access on my FreeBSD machine by running SLiRP (a SLIP/PPP emulator) on a remote machine. I've tried doing it like normal SLIP/PPP (which works fine under OS/2) but whenever I get it running, it doesn't work. "telnet" times out when trying to connect to a remote machine, and "netstat -r" just prints information about the active interfaces and then just sits there. If there is a document explaining how to use SLiRP with FreeBSD's SLIP/PPP, please point me to it. Thanks, Andy
