A number of sites on the internet are advertising "uucp" connections
with other internet sites. My understanding is that they actually
run uucp over ip. I have run across a number of UNIX systems that
have entries for "uucpd" in /etc/services, however there doesn't
seem to be any consistency in the tcp port numbers being used for this
service. Also, the connection protocol doesn't seem to be documented.
I would like to find out what port these sites are using, and what
sort of handshake they go through upon connection, prior to starting
up uucico. Please email and I'll summarize.

I'd like to read it the first time :-) -- I musta missed it. I have been unable to get uucp over TCP/IP to work under 386/ix HOST-BASED TCP/IP. We do not have an NP600 card, rather two NI5210's and a WD8003. I think it has to do with the listener. (RFS doesn't work either, and maybe for the same reason, but that is for another news group.) The listener won't bind to its address, and won't 'listen' to connections at the '00000000' address that it doesn't complain about. This is 386/ix 2.0.2 with TCP/IP 1.2 installed. -- Clay Haapala This signature brought to you by DAM: clay@haapi.uci.mn.org, Mothers Against Dyslexia ...!{bungia,jhereg}!uci!haapi!clay
