Since the original poster already has a SLIP connection, then I
had assumed that the comments were directed towards uucp.

In particular, I was talking about running uucp *over the SLIP
connection*. Even if the host does not support true uucp via
ip connections, you can do it with an 8-bit rlogin connection.

I don't recall that I had any difficulty compiling it for Linux.
"xmkmf -a" pretty much did it all.
