The connection is made and lasts for about 10 seconds, then dies. I do the following: 1. Establish the modem link using Kermit, then escape back to my pc. 2. "slattach /dev/tty00" 3. "ifconfig sl0 inet <clientIP> <serverIP> netmask 255.255.255.0 4. "route add 131.118.0.0 <serverIP> 5. "route add default <serverIP> I can finger and sometimes I can telnet, but things seem to die quickly. I've tried using rts/cts and no flow control, but it still dies. Any one have any ideas how to resolve this problem? I've followed the directions in the FAQ. --Leonard (leonard@sa4server.umd.edu)
