[ont.uucp] utzoo transfer to Sun

da@bvax.UUCP (Dave Sellers) (07/16/88)

We have installed a Sun here at Bell which transfers files to some
30 sites in the Company. We use 8 outgoing lines and have found some
good bugs in the Sun uucp code (like L.sys will only take 99 enteries).

I can't remember the other intermittant problems, but, by comparison
the System V verion we have running on the VAX730 is much more stable
and easier to manage.

Good luck to utzoo and let the bugs be with you!

We know about the bugs in Sun's ancient uucp.  (Did you know it drops
about 3/8ths of all incoming mail?)  That's why utzoo is running honey
danber instead of Sun's uucp.  It's working fine so far.
