Its been a little while since I played with Marinetti, however, I
think you will want to use the SLIP link layer, *not* the Direct
Connect link layer. IIRC, the Direct Connect link layer is for
creating a connection using the Windows (2000 or less) Direct
Connection feature.

Hopefully my memory is serving me well and that this helps!
