   I know that 386BSD supports SLIP, but is there any way to command the
   modem to dial a terminal server and log in with a username and password to
   get the SLIP session started?

I put example shell and kermit scripts as well as enhanced slattach
source code on ref.tfs.com in /usr/packages/dialup-slip.tar.Z.

Perhaps we should form a mailing list for dialup ip.  Who's interested
in discussning slip and ppp?  Rich
