"Out of the box" R6 install
Hi yet again...
I got the R6 disks and installed them on a friends system - also I got some
floppies and installed packages over that way. In any case we took his
computer home, dialied into my rotary network and tried to SLIP in. I had
compressed SLIP turned on in sliplogin for him and no matter what we did all
we could do is ping around the world only. ie: no telnet's etc etc, just a
ping - though when we booted to DOS and used Winsock it was fine with CSLIP
enabled.
The problem fixed itself when I changed his configuration to "normal"
uncompressed SLIP in my slip configs here... That's very strange because it
boots fine and has CSLIP enabled when I look through the login notes at bootup
(it is the default debian kernel of the disks). SLIP works fine, but CSLIP
wont - any suggestions? (other than ppp :-)
...Karl
