I assume by MS TCP/IP you mean the March or April beta currently being
discussed here. The answer is no, because it does not yet support SLIP.
With future versions, this will change. Microsoft plans to add both PPP
and SLIP to the Remote Access Server (RAS), so I am guessing they will
not do it in such a way as to avoid allowing the Winsock-TCP/IP stack to
use the remote protocols as well. Maybe not. YMMV.
