hi, all BSD experts

I have installed the FreeBSD 2.0-RELEASE recently, and 
I want to set the BSD as a comm server so that other people can
dial to my computer through slip.

I have gone through the slip.FAQ & slip-server.FAQ, but I am 
still puzzle about it.

Up to now, I can dial out through modem by using slip in kermit,
but I don't know how to dial back to my computer from other places. 

I would be much appreicated if anybody could  share his experiment with me.

Rds,

Philip
