David,
I've got a uucp feed available, and I'd like to use uucall. Following the
directions, I've made my uucp.ini file and my uucp.sys file, and just to make
sure, copied that all into my spool directory, which is also defined as my
network folder.
Also following your examples, I am running citadel from within the script
file, and that works flawlessly. The problem comes when I actually CALL
uucall. I repeatedly get the 'usage:....' message.
I have frontier AND uucp both defined in my uucp.sys, (as the same thing),
but when I run uucall with this:
uucall -suucp -x
it gives me the usage notes. Hmmmmm....Okay, first I looked in the docs, and
there's no mention of what command-line arguements are what. I tried
just the -x and just the -suucp. The only thing that provided any response
other than the usage note was 'uucall -x' That tells me that no system was
selected, so it's cleaning up. *sigh* Am I being incredibly stupid here or
what?
If you don't mind, I'd like to get the source from you. That would
(perhaps), let me dig things out myself and not bug you. I looked on
terminator, and on wuarchive, and there's no source to stadel.
If it matters, I have access to uue/uud, compress, zoo...whatever.
