In SLIP section:

Update a bit the beginning of the section to match 6.X (i.e. /dev/cuadN
etc.).
Of course more updates should be done in the whole chapter...

<para>First, determine which serial port your modem is connected to.
Many people set up a symbolic link, such as
<filename>/dev/modem</filename>, to point to the real device name,
<filename>/dev/cuaaN</filename>. This allows you to
<filename>/dev/cuaaN</filename> (or <filename>/dev/cuadN</filename> under &os;&nbsp;6.X). This allows you to
abstract the actual device name should you ever need to move
the modem to a different port. It can become quite cumbersome when you
need to fix a bunch of files in <filename>/etc</filename> and
<filename>.kermrc</filename> files all over the system!</para>
