**Trying to do anything to a binary distribution is no fun.  I hold the

ftp to ftp.com (128.127.25.100), user = anonymous, password = your
name, and get the file BUGLIX.SLIP.TAR. this is a distribution of slip
for a binary only ULTRIX 2.0 site. there is a readme file there to
explain how it should be done. if you have not rebuilt your kernel
before, here is not the place to start. if you have, this will get you
running. if you have problems with it, you can e-mail me questions.
(i dont get paid to support *this* code).
