I have dialup slip working manualy by useing tip to login to my
dialup IP sevice and then shell out of tip and run slattach.
I use slattach from 386bsd because the version distributed with
NetBSD drops DTR & RTS.
Does anyone have a substitute for tip - a comms package for example
or any other method to autodial and start slattach, preferably
something simple.
Some time ago I saved a very comprehesive perl script posted by
Graham Toal but not being familiar with perl and a rusty/lazy
programmer found it too complex
Thanks
Chris
