I dial up the campus and start slip on the server side fine. Then, I suspend kermit (I also tried killing it) and type: % slattach -h -a -s 57600 /dev/cua01 This works quite fine and doesn't exit. Pings never get to the slip server though. I used the exact same ifconfig and route as in the Slip.FAQ because my setup is approximately the same. I think this might be caused because the server doesn't support CSLIP. Is this a possibility? I left off the "-c" on the slattach because it was for compression. I have tried all sorts of routes and all the options of slattach, but it doesn't work. One other problem: the consoles in F*BSD don't support vt100 codes, so every time I use a school site that does, codes like "1h" appear on the screen. What term types are the consoles and how could I make them vt100 compatible? I am using "cons25" as the present type.
