Description lars 1999-06-09 18:39:44 UTC

When setting up a slip interface with linuxconf under RH6.0,
linuxconf creates
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/chat-$DEVICE.  Unfortunately,
RedHat's network scripts (ifup-sl) expect to find a dip
script (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/dip-$DEVICE).

Workaround: use control-panel (netcfg) to set up network
interfaces.
