I have read the FAQ but it has not helped in this case. Here is the problem. 1. I can get any machine to slIP into this address 202.14.100.1 and then do what they wish on this box. But they can not get to any other machine in this domain from their remote machines. 2. They can not ping, telnet, ftp, rwhod, nslookup server 202.14.100.100 (or any other dns server) to anything but the box they have slIP'ed to. Here is my /etc/slip.hosts file # # login local-addr remote-addr mask opt1 opt2 # (normal,compress,noicmp) # #Skcbbs pablo kcbbs 0xffffff00 normal #Sstatus 202.14.100.1 202.20.65.1 0xffffff00 normal Samiga 202.14.100.1 202.14.100.250 0xffffff00 normal Smentor 202.14.100.1 202.14.100.210 0xffffff00 normal Seconz 202.14.100.1 202.14.100.75 0xffffff00 normal Sbox 202.14.100.1 202.14.100.69 0xffffff00 normal Here is my /etc/slip.login file where I suspect the problem LIES .. #!/bin/sh - # # @(#)slip.login 5.1 (Berkeley) 7/1/90 # # generic login file for a slip line. sliplogin invokes this with # the parameters: # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7-n # slipunit ttyspeed loginname local-addr remote-addr mask opt-args # /sbin/ifconfig sl$1 inet $4 $5 netmask $6 /sbin/route add default $5 Can someone please email me how I can get this to allow access to outside sites (outside in this case "202.14.100.1") from the host machine.
