Are you really running SLIP on-top of a TCP/IP enabled cablemodem?
Any reason why?  VPN.. of sorts?

Time Wait

This is Ident traffic.  In your /etc/rc.d/inetd.conf file, do you have:

--
auth   stream  tcp     nowait    nobody    /usr/sbin/in.identd in.identd -l -e
-o
--

Also, are you filtering port 113 on your Linux box?
