[comp.sys.amiga] UUCPv1.03D -- F.X Fail

akcs.clemon@wcbcs (Craig Lemon) (03/22/90)

  Hello net,

    I have a little teensy, weensy problem with UUCp v1.03D (we've all heard
this before).  When I watch a connection at any debug level my transfer
always stops at a 'F.X failed 67 13' message and then freezes.  The other
favorite is 'expected packet 2, received 1'.  Is the UUCP protocol so stupid
that it isn't able to say "go back to packet 1".  My feed simply continues
to ENDLESSLY send packet 2.  This happened repeatedly.  I can't get anywhere
now because of the F.X fail.  I don't even have anything spooled to go out
so it must be coming in.  A file called D.blah[numbers].TMP is created and
then stopped for no apparent reason.  My feed site administrator isn't
giving out shell account at the present so I'm stuck with an AKCS account
and can't simply go and delete whatever is spooled for my home machine and
is causing the problem.  Help?  Matt?  William?  ANYBODY??

    PS. Please DON'T E-Mail.  As you can tell if you thought about it, my E-
Mail address is my home machine which UUCP speaking is decapitated.
