Yes you can do this.  I don't know of any PD programs that allow SLIP, other
than a version of NCSA Telnet that was modified by Cisco (?) to do SLIP.
Our product, TCP/Connect II, contains SLIP as well as the following Telnet
(VT240/241, TN3270, Tek 4014), FTP, NNTP (netnews), SMTP/POP, SNMP, etc...
If you are interested drop me a note with your address and I will put some
literature in the mail for you.

There should be some docs for this floating around on the net somewhere.
