I'm trying to set up a uucp link between my Vax-11/750 running 4.2 and a 3B20 system running Sys5. I can dial in to the other system and log on, but the uucp handshake fails, as shown below. Stuff in [brackets] are my comments added later. ----------------- Script started on Wed Oct 9 16:11:35 1985 # uucico -r1 -sdw3b20 -x9 uucp dw3b20 (10/9-16:12-11636) DEBUG (ENABLED) [dialing sequence not shown] login called wanted "" got that send \r RETURN wanted ogin =9\015\012logingot that [something strange here -- why the "=9"?] send phri wanted word : phri\015\012Passwordgot that send [our password] uucp dw3b20 (10/9-16:12-11636) SUCCEEDED (call to dw3b20 ) imsg >:\015\012\020< Shere=dw3b20\000imsg >\020< RLOGIN\000msg-RLOGIN uucp dw3b20 (10/9-16:12-11636) HANDSHAKE FAILED (LOGIN) exit code 0 # [some random stuff omitted] script done on Wed Oct 9 16:12:58 1985 ---------------------------- The line in our L.sys file for dw3b20 is shown below. It is our "standard" L.sys line; I machine-copied it from a known working L.sys line and just changed the phone number, system name, etc. dw3b20 Any ACU 1200 9=[phone number] "" \r ogin-\r-ogin-EOT-ogin-BREAK-ogin-\r-ogin phri word [password] The first thing that spooks me is the "=9" showing up when looking for the "login: " message. The first digit of dw3b20's phone number is a '9'. The '=', of course, is the "wait for second dial-tone signal". Is it possible that uucico is somehow getting confused and thinking part of the phone number is something else? Anyway, it seems to log in OK because we get the Shere message (I've logged in manually, and that works fine as well), but then the handshake fails. At this point, I have no idea what's going on. We talk to an assortment of machines, some 4.2, some Sys5, some PC's running uucp simulations, and I've never seen this error message before. Can somebody tell me what's going on (i.e. what I've done wrong). -- Roy Smith <allegra!phri!roy> System Administrator, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016
