Well, you could read the latest dip documentation that came with your dip,
or you can read the source code.  Both will tell you that 0 <-> OK,
1 <-> CONNECT, and 2 <-> ERROR.  This change happened within the last year or
so.  It caused me problems when I upgraded from SLS 1.05 to SLS 2.0 and
discovered I had to change my dip script for it to work with the newer dip.
