[comp.unix.wizards] uucico

In using the ancient (v.7 derived) uucico supplied with SCO Xenix
386ps, version 2.2.3, we have difficulties at 2400 baud when our
uucico starts up in SLAVE mode and has to switch in the middle of the
transmission to MASTER mode.  As far as I can determine, our system
does not respond correctly after the remote system sends the 'H'
signal indicating that they have no further traffic for us.  Instead
of the 'HN' indicating that our system has traffic for the remote, the
remote reports in the debugging logs that it received a "backspace",
(0x8).  The remote then signals that it has gotten a "bad read" and
hangs up the connection.

The problem occurs at 2400 baud with the remote (calling) system using a
Trailblazer modem.  We do not have a Trailblazer modem.  At 1200 baud,
with a Hayes modem on the remote, there is no problem.  If we initiate
the connection in MASTER mode (i.e., we call them) there is no
problem when we call the Trailblazer.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.  Please send replies by email
or to newsgroup comp.unix.xenix.
