Find the sliplogin subdirectory and take a look at the files there. It shows you how to set up for auto-slip connection for known machines by setting sliplogin as the shell in /etc/passwd for those machines. In /etc/ttys you need to make sure that getty is on for com2. These are not step by step instructions but you should be able to figure it out from the source files and the sliplogin(8) manpage. Hope this helps. -- LCDR Mike Dobson, Sys Admin for | Internet: rdc30@nmrdc1.nmrdc.nnmc.navy.mil nmrdc1.nmrdc.nnmc.navy.mil | UUCP: ...uunet!mimsy!nmrdc1!rdc30 AT&T 3B2/600G Sys V R 3.2.3 | BITNET: dobson@usuhsb or nrd0mxd@vmnmdsc WIN/TCP for 3B2 R3.2 | MCI-Mail: 377-2719 or 0003772719@mcimail.com
