Nadeen, In reference to your email to me about IP Routing, I intend to set up ip routing from a linux box through the serial port over a syncronous line driver (which is similar to a modem but does not use the same commands as a modem) with rj45/cat5 line. The other end of the cat5 will be another line driver and connected to that is a Cisco 2500series router on a windows box. I currently have a connection but cannot talk to the cisco end nor can I recieve data from it. I need to know what program to use in linux and how to use it so as to achieve a connection and be able to talk using tcp/ip,rip,ppp.
Any help you could give would be great. Please don't hesitate to send this to friends so that I can get as much info as possible.
Thanks Ian Brown ijbrown1@one.net.au

I could be totally out of the ballpark here, but aren't you talking
about the 'SLIP" protocol? (Serial Line Interface Protocol). This was an
early attempt at networking, and IIRC, was shitcanned the moment TCP/IP
reared it's (somewhat) ugly head. As I recall, it was very error prone
over high volume networks, and produced security holes you could drive a
roadtrain through!

Actually, you can run PPP on the serial interface of a Cisco... you need
to set the encapsulation type, as the default is HDLC. the other issue is
having a synchronous interface on your Linux box...
