I'm looking for a program compatable with uucp for a micro - preferrably
to run on a cp/m-80 system or an IBM-pc. Failing that, information on
the protocol(s) used would be helpful; I'd rather not have to figure it
out from the source if I don't have to. Thanks!

With all of the talk about UUCP for MSDOS systems going around, I just
want to clear something up. Many people, including myself, would like
a much simpler implementation than the one currently for 256k MSDos
systems. We just want to be able to use our CP/M computers to call our
nearest mainframe, identify ourselves as a "site" and get our mail or
send a batch of mail to that site to be put on the net. Any way to do
this? Most of us don't have the disk space for netnews anyway.

Is there any place, apart from the source code, that you can get a description of the UUCP handshaking, transfer, and error checking protocols? I'd like to be able to just use uucico for local file transfers so I could use the PC here for personal archiving... 8" floppies are a pretty unreliable way to store important data, since the next system is very unlikely to be able to use them.

Does anyone out there know who it was that put UUCP on a micro? I remember it run on a PC and cost $500 but that's it. We would like to use such a program to link a large network of micros into the UUCP network. John Antypas: UC San Diego uucp: ...!sdcsvax!jantypas arpa: jantypas@sdcsvax.ucsd.edu

We would like to use such a >program to link a large network of micros into the UUCP network. Lauren Weinstein, ihnp4!vortex!lauren, wrote UULINK, which costs $335. He's mentioned it briefly on the net, but not discussed it much because the net ISN'T for advertising. It runs on MS-DOS systems, and works unattended. It does full-scale uucp and mail (RFC822 headers, reject diags, etc.) It also does limited netnews (originate and receive, but not forwarding because that's too much work for a PC.) -- # Bill Stewart, AT&T Bell Labs 2G-202, Holmdel NJ 1-201-949-0705 ihnp4!ho95c!wcs
