Attempting to set up SLIP for dial in customers.

THis is what I have so far:

# grep Smbarnes /etc/passwd
Smbarnes:*:150:1:Slip TEst:/tmp:/usr/sbin/sliplogin

# grep Smbarnes /etc/slip.hosts
Smbarnes        198.65.234.254  198.65.234.8    255.255.255.0

# grep Smbarnes /etc/slip.login
0 9600 Smbarnes `hostname`      198.65.234.8    255.255.255.0


The problem that I am having is that I can dial into the system from home.
I get
login   Smbarnes
Password *******

And then the thing disconnects me.

# tail /var/log/messages
Jul 17 12:57:16 cluster -sliplogin[7130]: Smbarnes login failed: exit
status 512n

Our ip is 198.65.234.254
I do have a ip for mbarnes:  198.65.234.8

What have I done wrong?
