	I presume what you're talking about is a program that adds SLIP
capabilities to a normal "dialup" UNIX account.  I've heard about these
types of programs lately.

	Well, if/when GSSLIP comes out, you could use the 'host end' of the
software along with any GS software that took advantage of SLIP.  That is,
most of this product is something that's running on the UNIX BOX, not on 
your own local system.

	Followups to c.s.a2.gno, where the original discussin should have been.
