Hi,

	I am trying to run SLIP on dialout lines. After adding the drivers slip
and switch to the 'drvtab' file and ofcourse configure the switched-slip hosts
in /etc/host /etc/uucp/Systems.slip, /etc/uucp/Devices and /etc/networks.
	One thing is for sure there not one piece of documentation on this
subject, however in my opinion the only thing I still have to do is to
activate de slipdaemon (/usr/sbin/in.slipd).
And this beast is the problem it starts complaining with some failed ioctl's.
I have include the file /etc/log/sliplog
I am running UNIX V.4 version 1.0.2 also the routed and named deamons are running.
My local techconsultant  (UNISYS) says slip is not supported ??
Why then bundle it with this software ??

Is there anybody out there who has a solution ?
