[comp.misc] uucp 'crashes' when connecting to Zeus

fountain@jimi.cs.unlv.edu (John Fountain, Jr.) (10/08/87)

At work we are running Zeus 3.2 on a System 8000 and HP-UX on
an HP9000.  I have tried to get the uucp's to talk but there
seems to be a problem.  uucp -r1 -shp -x5 claims that the login
was completed but there doesn't seem to be anyway to see
debug information AT THE CALLED machine.  Note that the Zeus
is a system 3 derivative (I think).

Does anyone know how to get debug info AFTER connection ?

Does anyone have any experience on the Zeus side that might
be able to shed some light on my darkness ?

Sure yes, known bugs to me are:

	1. you can't have connection to two systems if their names are
	   leading subset of eachother. ( kpi / kpit in our case )
	   - I have a binary patch which take care of this one.

	2. The ' -Q%d ' in the response isn't printed with the value
	   of the debug variable, but this little trick could help you:

	   	uucico -shp '-x6 -Q6' -r1.

	3. The Setline procedure has a saved TCGETA status variable
	   which isn't declared static. this gives almost allways
	   problems when logging off the other system,
	   - I have a binary patch for this one comming up.
