Greetings,
	If you have a FreeBSD box not connected to ethernet but hooked up to
another UNIX box over slip can you please, please ( pretty please ) mail me 
your "netstat -r" or "netstat -nr" output along with your /etc/netstart and your/etc/hosts files, I would really appreciate it. 

I'm having no luck trying to get our SLIP line working. I can login to the slip server, the people on the other can see me login in but I can't ping the slip-server. I have pretty much followed the directions in the SLIP FAQ other noteson SLIP in the main FAQ and the TCP/IP book.
