Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else was using the bsddip program to
get a SL/IP connection with MacBSD. I've used it in the past; it's
worked just fine. Last night, I finally got the chance to try out
GENERIC#7 off of puma last night, and, unfortunately, I can't get SL/IP
to work. Using dip, I can dial just fine. The connection appears to be
made just fine as well. However, when dip tries to ifconfig the sl0
interface, it dies, saying that something like
SIOGIFFFLAGS: device not configured
So, does anybody have any clues why this might be the case? I'll try a
few more things tonight to see if I can get it to work, but, like I said,
it's always worked before. I'm afraid that I'm missing something fairly
obvious, so please feel free to tell me so. Oh, I almost forgot, I tried
using the standard ppp chat script as well, but it appeared to just hang,
and I still could not get any route to my gateway. Oh well...
Thanks in advance.
