The sl device , like all devices, are installed in kernel. You do not need any file for the driver. To set up yor SLIP conexion use: slattach -s baudrate ttyline For example, for the com2 port: slattach -s 9600 /dev/tty01 The tty line should be attached to sl0. If you want to check this run netstat -i. Then configure your SLIP driver: ifconfig sl0 inet <your_ip_address> <the_ip_address_you_are_connected_to> up Enjoy.
