We're a 4.2BSD site. Situation is: uucico times out following its HUP OO to the slave system very often. We have our retry time set to 450 secs and are annoying our usenet feeder by repeated do-nothing calls. I'll appreciate any help. -- Jim Chappell ...!seismo!vrdxhq!ms3!jrc ISN Corp. 1235A Jeff Davis Hwy, Suite 605A Arlington, Va 22202

We have the same problem now with one site we talk to, but that site is beta 4.3. We have no problems talking to other 4.2's, system V, or a UNIPLUS machine. Only with the 4.3 site (hi there sunybcs!loverso) do we get timeout's 98% of the time. I stopped complaining a while ago. -- Doug Boyce Daemen College, Buffalo NY UUCP : decvax!sunybcs!daemen!boyce or ihnp4!kitty!daemen!boyce ARPA : boyce%buffalo@csnet-relay.arpa "I always get the best advice from myself." --Slippery Jim [A Stainless Steel Rat is Born]

I'd say it happens about once every 10-15 calls. I haven't had the time to track it down and since it happens less than 10 percent of the time, it ain't too annoying. There is definately some problem (incompatibility?) between 4.2 and 4.3 uucp. If anyone figures this out, let me know. Thanks.
