Date: Mon, 23 Sep 1996 19:52:45 -0400 Organization: DIGEX Lines: 23 Message-ID: <cps-ya023080002309961952450001@newsreader.digex.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: bab00110.slip.digex.net Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Newsreader: Yet Another NewsWatcher 2.3.0 I'm running MacBSD on an SE/30 with an ethernet card and a modem, and would like to set it up as a router. I want to use the modem to connect to my ISP, and then route to a TCP/IP network on the ethernet in my house. What do I need to make the SLIP connection via the modem? I tried playing with cu, but can't seem to get it to work (it claims the tty00 (or tty01, I forget) is already in use). I'm a novice to MacBSD (and unix in general), so I'm not sure if I'm able to compile source files if that's what is necessary (though I'd certainly welcome the learning oppurtunity if someone can give me directions).
