Lines: 13 Message-ID: <4u92li$5rg@van1s03.cyberion.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: tc227.wwdc.com X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 I'm having problems setting up a BSDI machine to operate in via SLIP. I have no problem with dialing in. It's after I'm connected. I can ping any address on the internet and the name server is working. If I try to FTP or Telnet any address, I get connected but then it stops. I get no login prompts at all. Eventually it times out. Can anyone think of the setting I'm missing? Or does anyone know where there's a full set of instructions on setting this up? Thanks, Sean
