  I am currently running 386BSD 0.1, and I have got everything set up for my machines,
including the valid IP address, the netmask, broadcast address and the target network
hosts which I am suyppose to connect to, slattach the device I wanted, adding route,
ifconfig sl0 and sl1 properly, only when I realize that I need to somehow
dial up to the network to establish a SLIP connection.
 
  So, how can I do that, since I will not be able to use kermit or tip, am I right ?
So, I would like someone to give me a detail explanation, please email me any useful
hints, and many thanks in advance !!
