C-Kermit 5a(191) can indeed be used instead of SLIPTERM. It is not
documented in "Using C-Kermit" as the book was published before this
release. The specific method for using this support is dependent upon
the SLIP porivder you are using.
Try the UPDATES SLIP command from the C-Kermit prompt.
----
In general though, you need to edit your SLIP.CFG file (ETC directory)
to specify the proper settings for SLIP.EXE.
Then you start SLIP.EXE.
Then start C-Kermit, say SET PORT SLIPCOMx where the x i s replaced by
the port number being used by SLIP.EXE. Set the speed, flow control,
etc. Dial, make your connection, start SLIP.
Now if your provider has BOOTP support, run BOOTP to configure your
IP addresses and routes.
If not, you must use the INPUT command and the \v(input) variable
to capture the IP addresses and call IFCONFIG to setup your IP address
and routes.
Since this would be automated, you must understand the C-Kermit scripting
language fairly well. And for that you should get a copy of "Using C-Kermit".
