That's odd. I did not have a whole lot of trouble getting InterSLIP to
work on my 6100/60. I do find that MacPPP is in general a much more
reliable way to connect, however. I was never able to write a script for
InterSLIP that worked reliably, but since my provider has PPP as well I
changed to MacPPP.

It may be an excentricity of InterSLIP that you have found, or perhaps
your script is bad? Anyway, you can connect with it successfully.
