[ts-7000] slip configuring problem on ts7800 (perhaps a module problem?)

["nibapa" <>]

Hi everybody,

I still have problems making running slip between my host linux pc and
TS7800,while it runs correctly between two linux pc.

I configured slip by the standard two lines:

/sbin/slattach -p slip -s 19200 /dev/ttyS1  &
/sbin/ifconfig sl0 192.168.1.131  pointopoint 192.168.1.170  up

the first line gives me an error (only in TS7800) if I don't load
manually the slip module (modprobe slip)

the strange thing (perhaps) is that:

in Host (Fedora) Linux PC I have:

lsmod | grep slip

slip                   13601  1
slhc                    9025  1 slip


in TS7800 (upgraded with last distribution from ts ftp site)

lsmod | grep slip
slip                    8896  1

slhc is not loaded and even if I try to manually load firstly slhc and
then slip, modules are loaded with no errors,
slattach command returns no errors but

lsmod | grep sl
slip                    8896  1
slhc                    5888  0

and definitly slip doesn't run, no ping between TS7800 and hosts

Can You give me some hints, please? Could be  the modules
configuration difference the reason?

Thanks in advance

Paolo
