[comp.mail.uucp] accunet & uucp

vch@attibr.UUCP (Vincent C. Hatem) (07/28/88)

We've been trying to get uucp working over the accunet network (x.25)
to a system in London, and other places worldwide, and we've been having
some problems... 

Could anyone out there in net-land give me some clues???

We can make a connection, and log in, but that's about as far as we get.
The Sphere message comes through, and uucp reports that we've logged in,
but the connection terminates from the remote end before we can negotiate
a protocol.

I think the problem has to do with the packet network delays, but we haven't
got any manuals here that indicate how to (or if it's possible to) reduce
the jerkyness of the I/O.

Any ideas???

Thanks in advance for any help!!

Oh, please respond e-mail to attmail!attibr!vch, as we've only been on the net
a few days, and haven't recieved any traffic on this topic yet... I'm not
so sure that our feed is working correctly.

There's a special protocol for speaking UUCP over X.25. An implementation
of this protocol for BSD UUCP is in volume 8 of the comp.sources.unix
archive.
