Hi all.

	I was quite sucesfull setting up a SLIP connection between my
386bsd PC at home and a SunOS machine at college. The machine I am connecting
to is a router connected to subnetworks A.B.1 and A.B.2. My machine gets
assigned the address A.B.2.PC and the sl0 interface is configured between
A.B.2.PC -> A.B.2.Server with netmask 255.255.255.0. Adding as default
route A.B.2.Server allows me to see all of the internet except the A.B.2
subnetwork (the same goes for the rest of the machine on the A.B.2 subnetwork
wich cannot see the PC).

	I would appreciate if anyone had any idea how to overcome this 
situation.

	Thanks in advance.

Kostis

PS Is there an in-depth FAQ about SLIP, CSLIP ?
