- I use MLink on my Unix Shell account to emulate both TCP and SLIP. It
- allows me to run several TCP clients simultaneously (although my ISP
- does not allow me to use the servers for mail and newsgroups, that is not
- so with every ISP).

- If you already have a SLIP/PPP account instead of a Unix Shell account,
- then there are utilities to assist with or semi-automate the installation
- process. Look for them on Aminet.
