Try checking the server and the client to make sure that compressed-slip is either enabled or disabled on both ends. Perhaps try an "ifconfig sl0 -link0" on the 2.0.5 system to clear the SC_COMPRESS flag on the slip interface and see if TCP services work (if so, the 1.1.5 system must have its end of the link in "normal" mode). Otherwise, perhaps try the "compress" flag in /etc/slip.hosts on the 1.1.5 system to force compressed-slip. The 2.0.5 kernel's slip interface notices when a compressed-slip packet arrives and sets the SC_COMPRESS (link0) flag on the interface for outgoing packets. This bit me, since 2.0.5's sliplogin no longer clears/sets the interface flags - I had to add an "ifconfig" to /etc/sliphome/slip.login to clear the link0 flag. > Other than this things look great > Wilko Bulte email: wilko@yedi.iaf.nl Guy Helmer, Dakota State University Computing Services - ghelmer@alpha.dsu.edu Government cannot give to people what it does not first take away from people. - Kenneth W.
