Bzzt.  He is using a custom-compiled, non-debian 1.2.13 with no
modules.  It has SLIP and CSLIP in the kernel, and both work, but dip
does not execute `route' or `ifconfig' after making the connection
as best as I can tell.  About all I haven't tried is `strace'.

In any case, I can't get SLIP or CSLIP to work with DIP.

On *my* machine, it works fine.  I'm not sure why; our kernels are
almost identical.

Thanks,

Jeff
