[comp.unix.questions] UUCP questions

tim@ora.UUCP (Tim O'Reilly) (04/16/87)

We are in the process of revising our Nutshell Handbook, Managing UUCP
and Usenet.  Most of the revisions have to do with HoneyDanBer
UUCP, but we'd also like to clean up some other details.  I'll
probably be posting questions a few more times, but here are
a few for starters:

1.  The 3B1 (UNIX PC) and other machines developed by Convergent
    Technologies have a file called modemcap, which works along
    the lines of termcap, for describing various dialers.  Does
    any other manufacturer use this file?

2.  How is the system id set on Berkeley 4.3 systems?

3.  Where can I get information on running UUCP over a LAN in 
    Berkeley UNIX?

4.  Does anyone out there have any really hairy and interesting chat
    that they've made to work?  We're looking for more good examples
    of problem situations and how to work around them.  We will
    protect the names of all systems involved, but will gladly give
    credit for any scripts we use.

Please reply by mail, since I don't usually read this newsgroup.
