It's amazing - Usenet gets results. I posted a message previously that indicated I was unable to talk to anyone from UniSource to answer my questions. Someone apparently read it and conveyed this to UniSource, and I got a phone call today. Anyway, the person who returned my call is Joyce Dinman. She's also the person I talked to the first time I called, several weeks ago, and at that time she was very helpful, even gave me a number I could dial up and try the system out with. However, she has apparently been out of town for a few weeks. For some reason (unclear to either of us) attempts to speak with a technical person other than her did not succeed. Now that she's back, she's vigorously trying to make sure that this problem doesn't happen again. Interesting point - a single user license lets you run UUCP on your async port anyway. How do they implement this? Can you put a getty on the port for uucp but nobody else can log in on it? Or do they only allow outgoing UUCP? (ugh!) So anyway, UniSource seems to be an OK place, at least as long as Joyce Dinman is in town. Mark
