Using the unsupported SLIP on Ultrix 4.3, is there any easy way to tell if the link is using compressed SLIP? I've found the sl_allowcompress and sl_docompress kernel variables (both set to 0 by default, but I've whacked them on with kvar), but is there a better way (or a 'right' way) to turn it on? I've also heard that there's a PPP for Ultrix (perhaps even Ultrix 4.3) floating around somewhere; unfortunately, there's nothing in the FAQ as far as I can see and archie turns up zillions of hits. Does anyone know where it can be found and if it works on Ultrix 4.3? Thanks in advance and yes, I'll send in a summary if people are interested. - cks
