Thanks to all that replied...
 
The consenus was to use PPP, which the provider has decided to go to
now anyway. PPP is builtin to Sol 2.4 and is quite easy to configure.
Several people pointed out where the source for netscape could be
found and also third party Slip stuff.

ftp to ftp.netscape.com for Netscape

Morning Star Technologies (for slip/ppp)
marketing@morningstar.com
