We recently installed an Excelan network and have not found any way to run UUCP between connected nodes. Someone mentioned here on the net something about devices that could be used for that purpose. Can anyone tell me how that's done? Also, has anyone gotten any mailers to work such that the "exos:" prefix is transparent to mail users? -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ : Steven List @ Transact Software, Inc. :^>~ : : Chairman, Unify User Group of Northern California : : {apple,coherent,limbo,mips,pyramid,ubvax}!itkin@guinan.Transact.COM :

You specify /dev/ttyT32 (Xenix 386) or T16 (Xenix/286) as the device to use for the connect. Depending on your version of uucp you modify either L_devices or Devices to support this. The device has the characteristic that when you open it the first line is taken as the system name. You L.sys or Systems file would look something like: in Systems: voodoo Any TCPIP 9600 - "" voodoo.battz.org gin: uucp ord: funny in Devices: TCPIP ttyT32 - 9600 direct Of course this is all in the Excellan MANUAL (hint!). bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM) {uunet | philabs}!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
