- Yes, I'm using MacSLIP with MacTCP and have successfully used Eudora,
- NewsWatcher, Fetch and PacerTerm. You must make sure MacTCP has the
- correct IP address for your machine (as recognized by others in your local
- domain). Also, if you are using symbolic names (e.g.
- mac.archive.umich.edu) in your applications, you must specify a Domain Name
- Server. You might also need to specify the correct gateway address for
- your network (I've used a default of 0.0.0.0).
