[comp.mail.uucp] odd problem with news feed

rock@lighthouse.com (02/02/90)

Our feed worked perfectly for a while.  Then a few weeks ago we
started having problems.

Connections at 2400 baud work fine for both news and mail, but
connections at 19200 (with our Telebits) fail as soon as the mail
finishes and the news starts.  For instance:

uucp pyrdc (1/27-19:05-29013) SUCCEEDED (call to pyrdc )
uucp pyrdc (1/27-19:05-29013) OK (startup ttyb 19200 baud)
rock pyrdc (1/27-19:05-29013) REQUEST (S D.lighthoB0Bm2 D.lighthoS0Bm2 rock)
rock pyrdc (1/27-19:05-29013) REQUEST (S D.lighthoX0Bm0 X.lighthoA0Bm3 rock)
rock pyrdc (1/27-19:05-29013) REQUESTED (S D.pyrdcBVek2 D.pyrdcSVek2 news)
news pyrdc (1/27-19:08-29013) BAD READ (expected ANY got FAIL (2))
news pyrdc (1/27-19:08-29013) FAILED (conversation complete)

We're running 4.3 BSD on a NeXT cube and our feed is a Pyramid.

Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
