Usually it is not as clever as chat and does not do any handshaking. Basically, it makes the serial line go to SLIP mode. And just that. Under linux, this is usually done by dip (which is more like chat than slattach). Still, someone provided an slattach (maybe useful for leased lines). There is no relation between slattach and ppp. Michael. -- Michael Weller: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], or even [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you encounter an eowmob account on any machine in the net, it's very likely it's me. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
