I saw the info in DiSCOver on being able to get SLSs via uucp and decided to give it a try. The thing that was missing is the machine name. In order to save everyone else the trouble, it is sosco. Also, below in the info file from the system as of today: --------------- mutilate here ----------------------------------- List of SLS files available for transfer using UUCP Last updated: 8/9/89 NEW SINCE LAST UPDATE OF 6/28/89: The Irwin driver for release 2.3.1 - 2.3.2 386AT is on hold again, so it has been removed from the download area. If you have already downloaded it, the problem with the last version is that it did not recognize the write-protect on the tape. The driver would not write on the tape, but would not return an error, so writes to a write-protected tape would appear to succeed, even though none of the data would actually be written. UUCP Connection information: Machine name: sosco Phone numbers: (408) 425-3502 (300-2400 baud) (408) 429-1786 (9600 baud Telebit) Login name: uusls (forth character is the letter "l" rather than numeral "1") No password Below is a list of the Support Level Supplements available for UUCP request in the directory /usr/spool/uucppublic/SLS. The files ending in .z have been reduced in size using the SCO XENIX pack(C) utility. These files must first be unpacked using unpack(C). Files ending in .ltr are the cover letters and installation instructions for the corresponding Supplements. The cover letters assume you have received the Supplements on diskette. To install a Supplement, you must first transfer it to a diskette using this procecure: 1. Request UUCP to transfer to your system the SLS file and cover letter file for the desired supplement. 2. Expand one or both of the files as necessary using unpack(C). 3. Format a diskette that is large enough to contain the supplement file. 4. Use the dd(C) command to transfer the supplement file to the diskette. For example, if the supplement file is "xnx102" and is in the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory on your system, and the diskette is a 5.25-inch, 360K, the command would be: dd if=/usr/spool/uucppublic/xnx102 of=/dev/rfd048ds9 Substitute the appropriate device name for "/dev/rfd048ds9" if transferring to a diskette of another capacity. However, always used the character device. The diskette must be formatted using the format(C) command before the data can be transferred. 5. Follow the installation instructions given in the cover letter file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Support Level Supplements available by UUCP request File name Size(bytes) Description app092.z 920320 DOS Connectivity app092.ltr 1040 SCO XENIX-NET 1.2.0k 286AT app094.z 172189 Termcap for AT&T 3B2 app094.ltr 1040 SCO FoxBASE+ 1.0.4 ATT3B2 xnx068.z 9048 20 Mhz Tape Driver xnx068.ltr 1601 version 2.2.1 386AT xnx071.z 41854 Mountain QIC-02 Tape Driver xnx071.ltr 11793 version 2.2.0 n286 xnx072.z 171965 Telebit Modem and uucico xnx072.ltr 1272 version 2.2.0 - 2.2.3 n286 xnx074.z 7190 MS-BASIC Compatibility xnx074.ltr 1080 version 2.2.2 - 2.2.3 386AT xnx076.z 36585 Logger Supplement xnx076.ltr 1777 version 2.2.1 - 2.2.3 386AT xnx080.z 28263 Cron Supplment xnx080.ltr 985 version 2.2.0 n286 xnx085.z 23706 at(C) Security Fix xnx085.z 540 version 2.20 n286 xnx087.z 7500 Shadow Sperry 4 Port xnx087.ltr 774 version 2.2.1 386AT xnx089.z 129423 SunRiver Driver xnx089.ltr.z 11017 version 2.2.2 - 2.2.3 386AT xnx094.z 31805 Tecmar Micro Channel Tape Driver xnx094.ltr 4401 version 2.2.2 - 2.2.3 386PS xnx096.z 173028 Shadow Sperry 4 Port xnx096.ltr 782 version 2.2.1 286AT xnx097.z 42954 Archive/Tecmar Tape Driver xnx097.ltr 4546 version 2.2.1 All_AT xnx098.z 11441 Irwin 20-megabyte format(C) xnx098.ltr 620 version 2.2.3 286AT xnx101.z 70279 Termcap Database xnx101.ltr 2932 version 2.2.0 - 2.2.3 n86 xnx102.z 44994 Multiple Mountain Tape Drives xnx102.ltr 9592 version 2.3.1 All_AT xnx104.z 420319 Excelan TCP/IP Supplement xnx104.ltr 1246 version 2.3.0 - 2.3.1 386AT xnx105.z 43077 RTS/CTS Handshaking Supplement xnx105.ltr 872 version 2.3.0 386AT xnx107.z 2490 /etc/rc supplement xnx107.ltr 619 version 2.2.3 286AT xnx108.z 123531 SunRiver Driver xnx108.ltr.z 18637 version 2.3.0 386AT xnx111.z 28917 Mail Security xnx111.ltr 1934 version 2.1.0 n286 xnx114.z 138839 DiSCOver technical articles xnx114.ltr 763 version all_versions ALL_AT,PS xnx115.z 5845 Slow Parallel Printing xnx115.ltr 1064 version 2.3.0 - 2.3.1 386AT xnx116.z 14435 Mapkey Supplement xnx116.ltr 1033 version 2.3 n386 xnx118.z 60749 QIC-40 tap driver xnx118.ltr 4688 version 2.2.3 - 2.3.1. 386AT xnx120.z 36527 ps seek Supplement xnx120.ltr 1164 version 2.3.0 - 2.3.1 n386 xnx122.z 52511 Archive VP409 Microchannel Driver xnx122.ltr 6065 version 2.2.2 - 2.2.3 ALL_PS xnx124.z 32708 fsck Supplement xnx124.ltr 1422 version 2.3.0 - 2.3.3 386AT xnx126.z 22648 Delayed Boot xnx126.ltr 1191 version 2.3.1 386AT xnx128.z 262004 Internal Modem Supplement xnx128.ltr 1812 version 2.2.3 - 2.3.2 ALL_AT xnx130.z 107735 Irwin Driver xnx130.ltr 3864 version 2.3.1 - 2.3.2 386AT {this is the new version as of 6/28/89} xnx133.z 59248 WD1007A Disk Controller Supplement xnx133.ltr 1927 version 2.2.3 - 2.3 286AT -- Phil Hughes, SSC, Inc.
