x I am having trouble uux'ing a shell command file from a remote machine where the shell command file contains one or more rcp or rsh commands. The rcp command reports "lost connection". The situation is something like this: Machine A: % uux b!cmd !file Machine B: /usr/bin/cmd: rcp $1 c:/tmp The rcp reports "lost connection". Running cmd on B manually works fine. I suspect that rcp is unhappy because it doesn't have a controlling tty. I did try, however, something like: /usr/bin/cmd: ( rcp $1 c:/tmp ) < /dev/console > /dev/console but it didn't help. Thanks. P.S. Running 4.2bsd on a VAX750 with an Interlan ethernet to a MVAX II running Ultrix. Cheers, Dan Ts'o Dept.
