Does anyone know much about SLIP or PPP connections?  I am interested in 
running some windows applications via WinSock Trumpet *the shareware one
that uses SLIP to connect*  My problem lies here :  The administrator on
the system I use doesn't seem to want to set up to run SLIP connections
*or PPP for that matter*  Anyhow what my interest is, is HOW can I get a
connection to run slip without it being set up.  Can it be done?  I have
tried compiling the versions out there and running them from my account
and had no luck *the readme's say something about recompiling the kernel
and that is hard to do with only student priviliges*  Is there any way
that this can be done?  If not is there somewhere I can telnet to that
does support it?  I have been trying to get this to work for about 4
months, and I never did hear back from my SysAdmin :-(  Please send any
suggestions to : sad8390@nebrwesleyan.edu
I just got on this bbs and don't know how often I will check the bases.

Thanx in advance
