	There are a example files for sliplogin in the current distribution
	(under /usr/src/usr.sbin/sliplogin) which are rather useless and mis-
	leading. E. g.: slip.hosts is looking like

#
# login	local-addr	remote-addr	mask		opt1	opt2 
#						(normal,compress,noicmp)	
#
Shavoc	okeeffe         havoc		0xffffff00	normal
Soxford	okeeffe		oxford-gw	0xffffff00	compress
Schez	okeeffe		chez		0xffffff00	compress
Smjk	okeeffe		pissaro		0xffffff00	compress
Smjk2	okeeffe		pissaro		0xffffff00	compress

	If Soxford is trying to log in it will be logged out immediately as
	the seventh parameter (compress) to slip.login will be deadly for
	ifconfig. You'd either have to add a "link0" there or put more
	intelligence into slip.login.

>How-To-Repeat:
	<code/nput/activities to reproduce the problem (multiple lines)>Try setting up a slip dial-in.
>Fix:
	
	Easiest: Erase those files. Good way: Take the existing installation of
	a machine offering slip dial-ins and use them as an example.
