I tried to port the ppp-1.2.tar package to Ultrix 4.2a, but all I discovered is that I'm far to out of my league on this one. I also have need to make (1) slip or (2) ppp run through a pty. Why? We have all our modems connected to terminal servers. I was planning on something like this: my machine (modem) --> (modem) term server (ethernet, telnet) -> Ultrix 4.2a Or I need to pay for a dedicated line, which is not cheap. --Michael -- Michael Graff <explorer@iastate.edu> Speaking for myself, not Project Vincent Voice: (515)294-4994 for ISU or the ISUCC Iowa State Univ Comp Center Fax: (515)294-1717 Ames, IA 50011 -=*> PGP key on pgp-public-keys@pgp.iastate.edu <*=-
