     Johnnie,

    Have you tried the WINSOCK Help Page at:
http://stjohns.edu/~bwnhsju/http/winsock/hlpindex.html   ?

    I used it,  and in 20 minutes I was up and running my PPP
connection with WIN95's winsock.  I had been using Trumpet 1.x.

   Are you sure you've got a SLIP connection and not PPP?
