Hi all:
I'm getting ready to set up SLIP or PPP on my DECstation 5000/133
running Ultrix v4.4, and have a few questions:

	1) Where can I get PPP for Ultrix?
	2) What is the fastest speed the serial ports will run on a
5000/133?  I know 19.2k is the max on a 5000/200.
	3) Is the setup of PPP straightforward?  What are the gotchas?
	4) Is the setup of SLIP straightforward?  What are the gotchas?

It really seems that all this should be in the FAQ, but none of it seems
to be.

Cheers,
--Lee
