Hi! I've got a UUCP problem. There's a uucp link (through standard modems) between my site (X02) and site cmtl01. This link has been used for a few months now for E-mail and file transfering without any problems. For a few weeks, cmtl01 have been giving me a news feed. Since then our commu- nications have been failing with depressing regularity. A (very) good number of our sessions end with *alarms* messages. Since I really have no ideas of what these messages mean I really don't know where to look! Any suggestions??? Here's a few lines from the uucico log and the uucp log. I am using HDP's UUCP with a system V system. *************************** uucico log *************************************** pkgetpack: Connodata=1 rec h->cntl 37777777602 send 40 pkgetpack: Connodata=1 rec h->cntl 37777777612 alarm 1 alarm 2 send 40 alarm 3 send 40 alarm 4 send 40 alarm 5 send 40 alarm 6 send 40 alarm 7 send 40 alarm 8 send 40 alarm 9 send 40 alarm 10 send 40 alarm 11 send 40 tries = 10 send 10 send 10 r short 2 want 3 rcount = 0 xcount = 0 cntrl - -1 send OO 0,imsg >exit code -1 Conversation Complete: Status FAILED **************************** uucp log ************************************ TM_cnt: 1 tm_name: /usr/spool/uucp/cmtl01/TM.10495.000 uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:10:36,10495,0) FAILED (LOGIN FAILED) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:11:29,10495,0) FAILED (LOGIN FAILED) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:12:22,10495,0) FAILED (LOGIN FAILED) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:12:57,10495,0) SUCCEEDED (call to cmtl01 ) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:12:59,10495,0) OK (startup) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:13:00,10495,0) REMOTE REQUESTED (cmtl01!D.cmtl07d72574 --> X02!D.cmtl07d72574 (news)) news cmtl01 (11/29-13:16:03,10495,1) IN SEND/SLAVE MODE (INPUT FAILURE) news cmtl01 (11/29-13:16:03,10495,1) FAILED (conversation complete) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:25:58,10557,0) FAILED (LOGIN FAILED) uucp cmtl01 (11/29-13:26:47,10557,0) CAUGHT (SIGNAL 15) -- Mario Dorion | E-mail: mdorion@X02.UUCP XIOS Systems | ...uunet!attcan!cmtl01!X02!mdorion Montreal, Canada | 1 (514) 744-3410 | No thanks, no penguin, I already got one!

We used to have the same problem when passing through a DATAKIT node. The problem was resolved when XON was shut off the line set up for UUCP. Paul MacMurdo pim@mrevox.bellcore.com Bellcore ...!bcr!mrevox!pim MRE 1C-343 435 South Street Morristown NJ 07960-1961
