	It sounds like your Unix server is not properly configured for
SLIP. TIOCSETD is the ioctl argument that you use to change the line
discipline on a tty. My guess is that when slattach opens the tty
line and tries to set SLPDISC the kernel cant find that discipline
descriptor in its switch table. 

	We have problems here with MK78/UX39 SLIP - I have been meaning
to port in CSLIP v2.6 to it but just have been too tired / too busy to
get to it. It should be a pretty easy thing. If you wanna try to beat me
to the punch you can get it from ftp.ee.lbl.gov  - use the BSD4.3
installation as a guide. You basically gotta add some things to 
tty_conf.c to make it jive.
