Hi Group,

I am attempting to get Ftp Software's generic ethernet driver
to work using the SLIP8250 packet driver from Clarkson.  It seems
to load fine but I am getting errors when attempting to use any
of the commands.  When I attempt to get to something directly
attached to the SLIP network it returns "ARP failed", and remote
systems return "Gateway down".

I am using SLIP8250 with KA9Q and it works fine.

I am also using other Clarkson drivers with Ftp's generic ethernet 
driver with good results.

Can I do this on a SLIP line?  What am I missing?

Thanks,
