Blake) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: SLIP Date: 27 Dec 1995 19:36:41 GMT Organization: Clark Internet Services, Inc., Ellicott City, MD USA Lines: 16 Message-ID: <4bs789$60c@clarknet.clark.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: explorer.clark.net Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950726BETA PL0] I've run around my new FreeBSD system and found startslip for initiating SLIP connections. I've looked at the man pages, and for all I can find it does have no scripting feature, just a password and username command line paramater. THis of course causes me proboems because there is a little more that I have to enter besides just a username and password for my ISP to get the SLIP server running. IS there any sort of scripting tool I can use in conjunction with startslip, or does startslip have something like that? -- *----------------------------------------------------------------------* | Todd Blake * tblake@clark.net | http://sun.aacc.cc.md.us/~tbb | | tbb@aacc.cc.md.us | Finger for public PGP key | |-------------------------------|--------------------------------------| | Thank you gentlemen, and have a good evening. | *----------------------------------------------------------------------*
