Hi there. I'm trying to set up a mail feed between an Ultrix 1.2 machine (soon to be 2.2) and a PC AT running Microport Sys V release 2. I can get the PC to call Ultrix and do uucp stuff but not visa versa. The log file has the entry HANDSHAKE FAILED (LOGIN) on the Ultrix machine for each attempt. When I look at the history of logins on the PC I see that the login actually worked but the Ultrix machine disconnected immediately. Any ideas? -- _____ Jonathan Knight, || JANET: jonathan@uk.ac.keele.cs / Department of Computer Science || UUCP: ...!ukc!kl-cs!jonathan / _ __ University of Keele, Keele, |+-------------------------------- (_/ (_) / / Staffordshire.

(Files in /usr/lib/uucp look like Systems, Devices, Permissions etc.) Then your Permissions file is probably wrong. Insert an entry: MACHINE=name-of-your-Ultrix-system \ LOGNAME=userid-Ultrix-uses-to-login \ READ=/usr/spool/uucppublic \ WRITE=/usr/spool/uucppublic \ REQUEST=yes \ SENDFILES=yes \ CALLBACK=no \ COMMANDS=rmail:rnews Good luck. -- -- ###### Jos Vos ###### Internet jos@idca.tds.philips.nl ###### -- ###### ###### UUCP ...!mcvax!philapd!jos ######

I've had BSD<->SysV problems, usually cured by getting the calling system to call at the same number of bits and parity as the recipient. I finally wrote a kludge to change the line on the recipient end before starting uucico, for system which really insisted in calling the way they wanted it. -- bill davidsen (wedu@ge-crd.arpa) {uunet | philabs}!steinmetz!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
