Well, I've got 386BSD running on my 66DX2, with patchkit 0.2.3 and
all is fine and dandy. I'm now getting it going over a dial up SLIP
internet connection, and that works fine too, except:
1) I can't dial out using tip. I tell the modem to dial OK, but
my login/password gets mangled somehow (the login gets echoed ok)
2) I can't make head or tail of the named manual entry. I just want
to specify one host as a name server - that can't be too hard, can
it?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Oh, and I also get the odd silo error, and a few spurious interrupts,
but they seem to do no harm...
Regards,
Tom
