Hello Steph. Many thanks for your assistance but the problem lies not
with Demon but with getting the correct configuration for slip. As you
can see, I've got the ppp connection working fine but Martin lives in
Germany and his service provider can only offer slip at the moment.
When I tried configuring Nos for slip I ran up against the problems I
described. But thanks anyway!

Of course, Of course... but these keys really are a bit too cloose fpr
my hooves....now where did I put that nice bag of sugarcubes.....

Yup! "ifconfig sl0 up" works for me if I type it as a command or
assign it to a hotkey as Steph suggests, "status up" does it
automatically if I put it in at the end of my dial.txt. ( after a
"wait 1000" line)

I assumed that Nos would work OK with slip as well but not so far. If
it did this would mean that you could go straight from Nos/Oasis to
Cab/Stick without having to break the connection and re-dial so I will
keep trying. ( Although ppp is supposed to be better ).
>Good luck!
