	In telnet.conf, you also have to add :
	host=where_you_go
	ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
	You'll use this name when creating new sessions.

	To connect to your machine, uses you favourite terminal program,
	log on the machine, and uses the local slip command to create
	the route.
	For a sun it could be :
	slip-attach <device> <speed> <local ip adresse> <YOUR ip adresse
		     defined in you telnet> <net mask,usualy 255.255.255.0>
	or
	sliplogin <route name, defined by sysadmin>

	Then, quit you terminal program (be careful to NOT drop DTR line!)
	and launch cisco-telnet... you can now open a session.

	Thanks to cisco's folk for SLIP telnet !

	Is there others SLIP tools availables ? like SMTP, NNTP.. ?
