I have tried to install the PD SLIP from Mamakos, but I cant get it to work
properly. Can anyone who uses it please help me, cause I dont know what
to do now.

If I ping from home to the next at university, the modem dials,
logs into the slip account, and the ping packets are transferred
to the remote host, but none are sent back. The same thiing happens
when I have started a background ping process at the remote host,
the packets are sent to me, but none are sent back to the remote.

the config.slip looks like this (at home):
SLIP0LOCAL= 129.187.148.131
SLIP0REMOTE= 129.187.148.130
SLIP0NETMASK=255.255.255.0
SLIP0CONFIG=SLIP
SLIP0DEFAULT=YES

the config file of the server has the ip adresses exchanged, and its
ethernet ip adress is 129.187.148.46, and the default is of course NO.

the netstat -r output looks ok to me.

I dont even know what to try next, so please anyone help me :-)
I WANT to use SLIP !!!!
