Dear UNIX  Masters,

I was finally able to get SLIP to work on my server.  I can dial-in and
login to the server.  So what's my problem?

What I cannot work out is the onward connection to the Internet through
the T1 line attached to the server.  Once connected and logged in, I
cannot access any network applications, eg.  ping, web-browser, telnet.
How do you set up the connection to run these applications?  My routing
table does not show any sl0 interface.

Any advice is very much appreciated.. Thanks

Steve Lim
