Hello everyone.

   I'm trying to configure my NetBSD/i386 box to use a static slip line. I
issue the following commands:

      slattach -h -s 38400 /dev/tty00
      ifconfig sl0 137.28.225.242 137.28.2.1 netmask 0xffff0000 up
      route add default 137.28.2.1

  which works fine on my Mac running a post 1.2 netbsd kernel. However, on
the PC running a custom 1.2 kernel I get a "no route to host" error when I
try to ping / telnet / etc.

   I've been playing with this for quite awhile and I'm running out of
ideas here. Can anyone help me?

   Info
   ------
        The PC is running a custom NetBSD 1.2 kernel, but I had the same problem
                with GENERICOTHER
        The Mac was running a post 1.2 -current kernel from around November.

  Thanks in advance for any help.....
