Hello Everyone.  I have a few problems as the subject says it all
Im trying to learn to install SLIPS on a BSD 4.4 system and any
of the packages that I can find are for the BSD 4.3 or less
or if i find a SLIP package for the 4.4 systems it is a beta
My first question is are there any SLIP packages advaliable
for 4.4 that are non-beta?  The second question is Since
this is more or less a project that i have decided to take on for
a class of mine how and what do I have to do before hand
before we get the analog lines attached?  Yes... It seems like
we are starting this all from scratch.  And being the "newbie"
that i am with the net (knowing of it for less than a year)
I am not really sure where to start.  Any flat out help whould be 
appreciated.  Thank you

Derek
