I'm looking for information on how to set it up between two unix machines... What do I need to do to get it going? How do I do it? Any pointers to useful references are appreciated. RFC 1055, "A NONSTANDARD FOR TRANSMISSION OF IP DATAGRAMS OVER SERIAL LINES: SLIP", by John Romkey is a good reference for what it is. Hard to say more without knowing which machines this is for, the answer for bsd is different from sunos is different from sysv. --Ed Edward Vielmetti, U of Michigan math dept comp.archives moderator
