Before You Start

Setting up Windows NT 4.0 as a host for SLIP communications is not easy, because Windows NT 4.0 is officially only able to act as a SLIP client.

Establishing communication between the Windows NT 4.0 system and the ChorusOS system on the serial line is relatively straightforward. However, making the ChorusOS system visible on the LAN to which the Windows NT 4.0 host is connected is difficult and is not currently supported.

Please use PPP for communications if you want full routing from the target to the LAN through the Windows NT 4.0 host. The setup of the Windows NT 4.0 host is only explained in order to allow communication with both the ChorusOS target and the LAN, without doing routing between them.
