[comp.os.minix] uupc

larryl%gandalf@Sun.COM (Larry Laskowski) (08/22/89)

I recently ported Minix-ST to an "orphan" 68010 system I have and am now
trying to get uupc (uucp) running on it.   I took the version of "dcp"
recently posted and have gotten it to compile after some problems.

I found a call to "gsendpk" which doesn't exist; I changed it to "gsendpkt"
and it now compiles cleanly.  After setting up the files and directories,
I have tried "dcp -s<hostname> -x20" as shown in the README and am getting
a memory fault.

It appears that there is a problem in "sprintf" when trying to build the
message which tells the name of the system it is calling and what time it is.
Has anyone seen this problem?  Has anyone gotten uupc to work under Minix-ST?
If changes are required, can someone send me the diffs?  

I am planning on debugging the sprintf failure to find out what is going on,
but if someone has already solved this, I would appreciate the help.

By the way, the port was pretty simple overall and Minix runs great.  My
thanks to Andy, Johan, and the others I forget right now.

					Any ideas on this?
