We are running 2.8BSD on our 11/70, and can't get uucp to work. I'm sure the problem is primarily in our faulty understanding of the details. Specifically, I'm confused by references to "ACUs" in the documentation. We don't have such things, and I am unsure how to make entries in the L.* files to denote this. We are using Hayes Smartmodems. Also, in uucp.h I see defined "DIALOUT" and "ACULAST". How do the Hayes control codes (3 plus signs, AT D, etc.) fit into these definitions? I have things working to the point where uucp queues things up in the spool directory; I just can't decipher the details on how to tell it about the dial-out port, modem control, etc. I would very much appreciate an explanation of this, however brief, and some examples of the L-devices, L-dialcodes, and L.sys files would be great! p.s. Does the 4.xBSD (VAX) uucp use the same L* file formats as the 2.xBSD (PDP 11/70) uucp? -- Jeff Percival ...!uwvax!uwmacc!jwp
