I have a question about slip and tcp/ip.  If my understanding of this is
correct.  The current linux kernal does not have slip and tcp/ip support in
it.   However, I seem to remember that something called kaq9 is supposed to
be a program that could help you get around that.  Now, I downloaded the
kaq9 from tsx-11.mit.edu source and looked at the readme files.  I do not
neccessarly understand what slip and tcp/ip work with this kaq9.  Can someone
out there who has gotten slip and tcp/ip to work with linux 96cpl1 explain
how kaq9 fits in to all this since slip is not in the kernel.

The overall goal of this is to see if X running on my sun at work can display
the output on my home computer running linux with a high speed connection.
i.e. 9600+ (with all the hardware compression I can get...)  I would appreciate
any help on this matter and if the response is great. I'll keep a list and post
the results....

Thanks for you help.
