sliplogin(1M)                Version 1.0(08-30-90)                sliplogin(1M)


NAME
      sliplogin - SLIP login shell.

SYNOPSIS
      /usr/sbin/sliplogin interface

DESCRIPTION
      Sliplogin is used as a login shell to conveniently initiate a SLIP
      (Serial Line Internet Protocol) network connection on an interactive
      basis.  Use the slipdialout command to establish the initial connection
      over modem or direct line.  In general, a user slip would be created
      using the sysadm command with a uid of zero and a login shell of
      /usr/sbin/sliplogin.  After successfully logging into the remote host as
      user slip, sliplogin will prompt for the local and remote SLIP Internet
      host names.  Either the actual host name or Internet number in standard
      dot notation may be used.  After both host names are entered, sliplogin
      will run the slipon command to start SLIP running on the remote machine.
      At this point, escape back to the local machine and start SLIP.  Use the
      slipdetach command to terminate the SLIP connection.
