I guess you know how much someone uses a program based on the number
of problems encountered....
We are currently using UUCP with wildcards in the "copy from"
specification. The problem we are having comes with a conversation fails
(for whatever reason) with only a few of the commands in the C. file
processed. When the remote system calls us again our system starts at
the top of the C. file and retransmits the stuff. Many of the remote systems
will refuse such attempts because it would overwrite the previous copy
(assuming no one has moved it), but the main problem is that this is very
wasteful.
I suppose I could crank the number of command lines in C. files down
(it is currently 20), but this is really not a solution. Does anyone out
there have a solution?
Thanks,
