Try a few searches on this site as well.

try this one DGCGCD--it's not an "open" tuning, so, it takes a more subtle approach--try sliding on 2 or 3 strings at a time--bouncing back and forth between open pairs and the slide...

The 'open G' tuning I posted in your other thread will also work for slide. Give it a try....

The most popular slide tunings I've seen are "Spanish" D-G-D-G-B-D- and "DADGAD".
