I started working with SLIP last night between two PCs.  The two PCs were
connected using a 2400 baud modem.  I had to use Procomm to get them on-line
with each other.

Then, I installed the packet driver for slip and was able to start NCSA
telnet/ftp, but I couldn't seem to get the two to talk.  When I tried to
open a ftp connect, I saw the modem SD light blink, but not connection.

I will be expirementing more over the weekend.
