We're in the process of getting an Alternet connection. We would like to
network multiple Xenix boxes off the main system which is tied in via a
56kbps TCP/IP line. These connections will be SLIP connections. However,
I've heard that you can't run more than 1 SLIP connection at a time. What
I want to do is as follows:
box 1 <--- SLIP ---\
box 2 <--- SLIP ---|----> main system <--- TCP/IP ---> ALTERNET
box 3 <--- SLIP ---/
SLIP connections would be 9600baud, with the TCP/IP connection a 56kbps
connection.
Eventually, as well, I'd like to be able to run SLIP connections off one
of the "leaf sites" (ie: box3).
Can this be done with the SCO TCP/IP system for XENIX? What other limitations
are there?
