Many thanks to all the folks who are helpoing me with this - I am creeping
up on the correct setup and learning heaps at the same time.

I have a couple of questions at present.

1) When setting up a SLIP server, should I be using the point-to-point
parameter? What, in fact, does the p-to-p parameter do???

2) If the remote end of my slip line is a PC running slip, do I *have* to
give it an IP number (it may already have it's own after all...eg a
laptop that moves from a direct connection to a dial up one). If I
*don't* give it an IP number, how do devices on my net going to know
that its there?????

I have to go away on business for a couple of days and won't be able to
work in this until I get back at the weekend.

By the way, I have received a number of messages asking me to send info
on how to set up a routing slip server (when I finally have mine
working). Having looked over as much documentation I can, I don't see a
slip-server HOWTO. I am certainly NOT a unix guru, but am heavily
involved in training, so have quite a bit of writing experience (in IT).
WOuld anyone be interested in cooperating on the production of a SLIP
server howto (or faq)??? Is there one around that I should know about???
