Thanks to some help from others in this newsgroup I've managed
to get slip dialout working on my FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 machine.

I sure can't figure out how to make it allow incomming slip
connections though... Regular dialup works fine.

I've read the man pages on sliplogin, and it's similar to the
sun ipx I set up.  But Cslip on the sun has it's own ifconfig
that handles the incoming connections.  

How do you set up a slip host?

Thanks in advance!
