I was attempting to get networking in VMware here, and I was thinking of using SLIP. However, I dunno how to make it work. :(

 

VMware can make named pipes (FIFOs) for serial ports, and I looked around for something that can serve SLIP to a named pipe, but since that is not really my area of expertise (I am a web developer), I have no idea what to search for.

 

What I have found:

 

ppp - http://ppp.samba.org/

Is there an option for this set of utilities to use named pipes?

 

vmnet - http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/vmnet (ftp://ftp.xos.nl/pub/linux/vmnet/)

Perhaps there is a way to direct named pipes to stdio for this one?
