Hi all !
Does anyone have real world-experience on the great joy of setting up a SLIP  
connection between a NetBlazer on a local network, with a demand fed SLIP  
connection to a remote site through the PTN (The phone dudes...) to another  
NeXTStation.

I am about to go through the process, and so far IP routing, SLIP, routers,  
gateways, etc has been the domain of the techno-preists. Implementing our first  
SLIP connection was a voyage of mystery (it should have worked ... why can't it  
see the remote host ?). I figure someone out there has been there, and done  
this.
If anyone is interested , I'll post something on how to configure the NetBlazer  
so it's happy with a remote demand fed SLIP interface to .... Marble  
Teleconnect.

I'm asking while in the process of leaping. In the next few days, I will get it  
up and flying. It's just a matter of configuration now...

;-)

What they really need to do is have someone write a NeXTStep based  
Configuration manager for the NetBlazer. It is O.K. to hack with, but ...  
pipeing and streaming and screaming commands in the background would be oh so  
much nicer.


Thanks!
