Thanks very much for your responses.  All responders recommended
using ppp instead of slip.  I will try a ppp setup tonight.

     I started trying to use slip because the NET-3-HOWTO recommends
it in this situation.  Is that advice now obsolete?  

     John says: "If this works I suggest upping the speed to 115200
and adding compression."  As I understand it, 38400 is the highest
speed that may be set directly.  To get 115200 one must specify 38400,
and use the spd_vhi option to setserial.  Is this correct, or can the
higher speed be set directly by pppd?

     Lindsay and Gregory: I have a couple of suggested files.  If I
have trouble getting it to work, I will ask you for the files you
offered.

     Thanks again for your prompt and helpful responses.

Bob
