Dulimarta) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions,comp.protocols.ppp,comp.protocols.tcp-ip Subject: PC <-> Sparc Date: 24 Feb 1993 08:18:33 GMT Organization: Dept. of Computer Science, Michigan State University Lines: 15 Distribution: world Message-ID: <1mfb0p$fgc@msuinfo.cl.msu.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: ahmeek.cps.msu.edu Originator: dulimart@ahmeek.cps.msu.edu Greetings, I'd like to have a TCP/IP connection between a PC and a Sparc via a serial line. Recently, I've been reading about PPP/SLIP and come to a conclusion that with PPP/SLIP, the connection has to be dialed up. Is it correct? Or, can I use PPP/SLIP via a null modem cable? Thanks for your information, Hans. -- |_|_|_|_| _|_|_ |_|_|_|_| Hans Dulimarta [dulimart@cps.msu.edu] |_|_|_| _|_| |_|_ |_|_|_| Pattern Recognition & Image Processing Laboratory |_|_| _|_|_ X _|_|_ |_|_| Department of Computer Science |_| |_|_|_|_|_|_|_| |_| Michigan State University
