No name yet proposed is optimal but not having the newsgroup is definitely suboptimal. I have never created a newsgroup before so I will leave it up to someone else to do. If someone else with more experience does not do it within a day or two, I will. BTW, there is probably going to be a goodly bit of SLIP discussion in this new newsgroup. PPP may be the wave of the future but SLIP is what most people are using now. -- Brian Lloyd, WB6RQN Telebit Corporation Network Systems Architect 1315 Chesapeake Terrace brian@napa.telebit.com Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1100 voice (408) 745-3103 FAX (408) 734-3333
