- Well, let's 1st of all assume that the HP unit is correctly configured
- to be a SLIP server (is it?) Also, it knows the IP address for your
- client (in /etc/slip.hosts or whereever for HPUX).
-
- Let's also assume that your /etc/hosts file is correct (Looks like it is).
-
- So let's start with the simple questions (which are kinda obvious)....
-
- 1. Are all your networking deamons active? (looks like it)
-
- 2. Is the Devices file right (and are you using HDB 1.16)?
-
- 3. Are you using 'cu' or 'tip' to establish the connection
- between your client and the server?
-
- 4. Can you connect to the server with 'cu' or 'tip'?
-
- 5. Did you start slip after you "logged onto" the server?
-
- 6. If so, what did it say?
-
- 7. As slip is running on the server, did you start another
- CommandShell (on your client) and run stattconf? What
- options did you use?
-
- 8. Only after all that happens will TCP/IP stuff work.
