- I'm having a problem with SLIP. After using it for a while, it ceases to work.
- I used to have slip working such that it would run all night without problems,
- however I reinstalled the system on a new disk. Does this problem sound
- familiar to anyone? Is there an existing patch for this?
-
- My configuration is:
- 386bsd 0.1 patched with patchkit upto 58. using cgd's multiport com driver.
-
- The following is an example of what happens when slip nolonger works.
