anybody know if there's a version of SLIP for the mac.  SLIP is some
software that runs on unix boxes (and others) that allows someone
with a serial connection to become a node on the net.  there is a 
prog called async appletalk that is similar but SLIP works with a 
host as opposed to another mac and puts you on the ethernet.  i'd 
rather use a shiva ethergate but some people in my shop want to 
use SLIP.  netmodem won't do the job because it's not on ethernet.
i welcome any ideas on the subject so please email and i'll post 
a summary.
