[comp.mail.uucp] g protocol woes

cambler@polyslo.CalPoly.EDU (++Christopher();) (02/24/91)

The machine I talk to seems to be gakking, but I think it's my fault.
problem:

g protocol packets have 5 header bytes:

type csuml csumh control xor

where xor is the number needed to make an xor of all 5 bytes == 0.

that is,

type ^ csuml ^ csumh ^ control ^ xor == 0

for some reason, all of a sudden, the xor byte is wrong consistantly on
the second data packet I get. Anyone ever seen this happen?
