Not at all. I was responding (tongue in cheek) to Peter's comment that there was no system-provided means of driving SLIP on another system. The ROUTE command is the swiss-army knife that lets you issue commands directed to another system. I have used it pretty extensively and I assume you have too :-) I have never tried to mess with SLIP commands using /RO, but I don't see any obvious reason that it wouldn't just work.
