I didn't see an sl0 in your ifconfig output. That should definitely
appear after sliplogin fires up. One trick to check this is to put

set -v
exec > /tmp/sliplogin.output.$$ 2>&1

at the top of slip.login. This will redirect the output of all the
commands that slip.login executes into the file
/tmp/sliplogin.output.<pid>. You can also put other diagonistic
commands in slip.login to check that all is going well.

In addition, You should check your routing tables (netstat
-r). Assuming they are correct I would next check that you've got your
mtu set correctly and that you've got a clean line (e.g. you do see
crtscts when you do a stty -a > /dev/modem).

Good luck.
