[comp.unix.wizards] uucp on AIX

dlr@daver.UU.NET (Dave Rand) (07/14/89)

I'm at the end of my rope!

I'm running HDB on an IBM-RT, under AIX. I want to establish a
hardwired connection to another system, also running HDB.

I can cu between the systems, and all works fine. I can log in,
and I get a shell. When the "other" systems calls (via uucico)
the RT, however, I have problems. It can log in OK, and invokes
/usr/lib/uucp/uucico. It starts the negotiation, emits a
Shere=<sysname>, then (when the "other" system send Shere=<sys>),
exits. The /usr/spool/uucp/.Admin/errors has an initial
assertion error, then about 200 more. I can't work it out!
As always, THANKS IN ADVANCE if you can help.

This is AIX 2.2. Appropriate technical details follow.

ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid:  4265 (7/13-14:05:52) RETURN FROM fixline ioctl  (1)
[SCCSID: @(#)line.c    7.2 87/07/08 16:39:50, FILE: line.c, LINE: 97]


(following repeated about 200 times, in about 4 second spread)

ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid:  4265 (7/13-14:05:52) SYSTAT OPEN FAIL /usr/spool/uucp/.Status/ (21)
[SCCSID: @(#)systat.c   7.2 87/07/08 16:43:37, FILE: systat.c, LINE: 100]
