        I'd like to run slip between two UNIX machines, one being a
DECstation 3100 running UWS 2.1.  I tried to add /etc/ifconfig sl0 ...
to the rc.local file but when I do I get the following message:
   ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCGIFFLAGS): no such interface
Is there a way to run slip on a DECstation?  Where/what is the pseudo
device for ifconfig?  Is there any way to run slip over a LAT tty
similar to a LAT printer?

                                Thanks,

      						Dave
