I've been trying to get ct(1) working. I'm running HP-UX 6.5 on a 9000/370. I'd like it to use our Trailblazer at 19200. It looks like this: $ ct 95551212 No 1200 dialers on this system $ ct -s19200 95551212 No 19200 dialers on this system $ The relevant lines in our /usr/lib/uucp/Devices file are: ACUBLAZER culd01 culd01 19200 tbfast ACUBLAZER culd01 culd01 2400 tb2400 ACUBLAZER culd01 culd01 2400nomnp tb2400nomnp ACUBLAZER culd01 culd01 1200 tb1200 Direct culd01 - 19200 direct The relevant lines in our /usr/lib/uucp/Dialers file are: # # Telebit dialers # tbfast =W-, "" \K\pA\pA\pA\pA\pA\pT OK ATS50=255DTW\T CONNECT\sFAST tb2400 =W-, "" \K\pA\pA\pA\pA\pA\pT OK ATS50=000DTW\T CONNECT\s2400 tb2400nomnp =W-, "" \K\pA\pA\pA\pA\pA\pT OK ATS95=000DTW\T CONNECT\s2400 tb1200 =W-, "" \K\pA\pA\pA\pA\pA\pT OK ATS50=000DTW\T CONNECT\s1200 Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated! -- Bruce Wehr (wehr%dptc.decnet@srlvx0.srl.ford.com) (...!mailrus!sharkey!fmeed1!wehr) (wehr%fmeed1.uucp@mailgw.cc.umich.edu) Ford Motor Company - Electronics Division 17000 Rotunda Drive, DPTC Room LN081, Dearborn, Michigan 48121 (313)845-3039

The only entries for the first field that appear there are: ACU Direct xxxxxx ( some system name) DK DKxx No ACUBLAZER field. I also find that setting up an ACU line and saying 'ct 5551212' the program acts reasonably on 6.5 and 3.1 mcorrigan@ucsd.edu

Thanks! It was a left over from Old-Style UUCP. We have 2 different types of ACU's here: Sytek boxes (to access machines on our building LAN), and a Trailblazer (to access machines over phone lines). For a few machines, I can use either method to access them, but for most, I must use either the LAN *or* the phones. I had to distinguish between the 2 ACU types in my Systems file (use ACUSYTEK for machine A, use ACUBLAZER for machine B). The generic type ACU wasn't sufficient. So, I also had to make the distinction in my Devices file. uucico used this info to choose an appropriate device, and would pass the name to /usr/lib/dialit to chose the correct dialer routine. Everything was fine. I guess HDB UUCP looks at things a little differently. But if you look in the Tutorials manual, you will still find the reference ACUHAYESSMART in an example Systems entry (p 2-15, if we have the same book). How does HDB map that to a device if there's no ACUHAYESSMART in the Devices file? The book also leads me to believe that Sytek is now a built-in dialer, but it isn't clear on how to configure the system to use it. Nor does it have any reference to ct(1) command. Anyway, thanks again for getting me off the ground! -- Bruce Wehr (wehr%dptc.decnet@srlvx0.srl.ford.com) (...!mailrus!sharkey!fmeed1!wehr) (wehr%fmeed1.uucp@mailgw.cc.umich.edu) Ford Motor Company - Electronics Division 17000 Rotunda Drive, DPTC Room LN081, Dearborn, Michigan 48121 (313)845-3039
