[comp.unix.ultrix] Don't let your LAT get between you and UUCP.

mra@srchtec.uucp (Michael Almond) (09/25/90)

	Enclosed you will find the information you need to set your DECsystem
up to do UUCP over a LAT port.  The enclosed information allows both outgoing
and incoming calls on LAT ports.

	The enclosed configuration is for two outgoing lines on tty02 and
tty03.  Incoming connections do not always map to the same ports, DEC uses a
FIFO method of allocating ports. Incoming connections start with tty04 in this
configuration.

	I used this configuration under Ultrix 3.1D and am using it now under
Ultrix 4.0.  In fact, this post would not be possible with being able to UUCP
over a LAT port.

	I have sent this out to a few people. A few pople from Eruope requested
the info, I hope it got through (I got some mail about uux getting an error on
a site down the pipe).

	Here is a sample L.sys file entry:

node Any tty02 2400 tty02 "" P_ZERO "" ATZ OK-ATZ\r-OK ATD5551212 CONNECT-ATD5551212-CONNECT \r\d\r\d\r\d\r\d\r\d\r\d\r\d\r\d\r ogin:-EOT-ogin: myloginname

	Here is the configuration in the /etc/ttys file:

console	"/etc/getty std.9600" vt100 	on secure	# console terminal
tty00	"/etc/getty std.9600" vt100	off nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty01	"/etc/getty std.9600" vt100	off nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty02	"/etc/getty std8.9600" vt100	off modem	# direct connect tty
tty03	"/etc/getty std8.9600" vt100 	off modem 	# direct connect tty
tty04	"/etc/getty std8.9600" vt100 secure on nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty05	"/etc/getty std8.9600" vt100 secure on nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty06	"/etc/getty std8.9600" vt100 secure on nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty07	"/etc/getty std.9600" vt100	off nomodem	# direct connect tty
tty08	"/etc/getty std.9600" vt100	off nomodem	# direct connect tty


	Here is the configuration information from the DECserver 200:

Port 4:                                Server: LAT_08002B056025

Character Size:            8           Input Speed:        2400
Flow Control:            XON           Output Speed:       2400
Parity:                 None           Modem Control:   Enabled

Access:              Dynamic           Local Switch:       None
Backwards Switch:       None           Name:             PORT_4
Break:                 Local           Session Limit:         4
Forwards Switch:        None           Type:               Soft

Dedicated Service: SRCHTEC

Authorized Groups:   0
(Current)  Groups:   0

Enabled Characteristics:

Autoconnect,  Broadcast,  Dialup,  Inactivity Logout,  Input Flow Control,
Loss Notification,  Message Codes,  Output Flow Control,  Signal Check,
Verification


	And, here is the script I use to start-up the lines:

lcp -h /dev/tty02:LAT_08002B056025:PORT_4
lcp -h /dev/tty03:LAT_08002B056025:PORT_3
lcp -H /dev/tty04,/dev/tty05

	NOTE: rc.local runs "/etc/lcp -s."
