               SLIP 1.5.1 - SLIP driver for Minix 2.0.2 - 2.0.3
 
==============================================================================

This package implements slip protocol in both 16 and 32 bit systems. It 
allows you to connect Minix to ISPs or to other machines connected to via 
the serial ports.

The driver are user mode programs so it is no necesary to make special 
modifications into the kernel. Please read the documentation files at all 
to understand how you can add the drivers to your system. For small memory 
systems like XT machines, please read carefully the README.XT file in the XT 
directory, for special considerations.

This version work in Minix version 2.0.2, 2.0.3 and in Minix-VMD 1.7.0.

The directories have the following:

chat: program that lets you to have automatic login scripts to ISPs.
      check the man pages and examples.

modem: some examples I used to connect to a BBS with menu using chat.

XT : examples of configuration files where I tested the 16 bit code.
     usefull if you have very low memory, or XT machines.

src: source files for slip driver

doc: documents files.

If you have questions, suggestions, and ideas, please let me know.
