I have a terminal server account here at School, which means that I can
set up a slip connection with the school.
Thus, I connect to the school, tell it to enter SLIP mode, pause tip,
and then run
nohup slattach /dev/com2 19200
Now, the question is: What's next?
I can't seem to do anything like rlogin, telnet, or ftp, which tends to
suggest that I haven't set up some sort of network services properly.
Could somebody take the time to tell me what I have to do now, or point
me to some documents that would..? I can find no mention of this in the
FAQ or the install notes...
Any help would be great.
Toodlepip!
Marc 'em.
