[comp.unix.ultrix] UUCP setup problem using TCP

yhsieh@cadence.cadence.com (Tommy Hsieh) (06/12/90)

Hi,

I have problems to setup UUCP on our Ethernet network.  I have two 
machines called "sys1" and "sys2" on the same network.

The following files are those UUCP related files I changed.

L-devices:
  sys1 :
       TCP - - 540 -
  sys2 :
       TCP - - 540 -

L.sys:
  sys1 :
       sys2 Any TCP 540 sys2
  sys2 :
       sys1 Any TCP 540 sys1

L.cmd:
  bothe have
       PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb
       rmail X1
       rnews X1
       lpr X1
       uusend X9
       bnproc X1
       unbatchnews X1
       uux X9
       uuxp x9
       ls   x9

USERFILE:
  sys1 :
       Usys2,sys2 /usr
  sys2 : 
       Usys1,sys1 /usr

When I tested the system with the command "/usr/lib/uucp/uucico -r1 -ssys2 -x9"
on sys1.  In the LOGFILE it complains 
          "root sys2 (6/11-17:25-8367) FAILED (call to sys2,  NO DEVICE ) 

Could anybody what's wrong with my setup ?  Thanks in advance.

The standard Ultrix uucp (1.3 to 3.1C) doesn't support tcp connections.  You
can patch it a bit here and a bit there and get some action, but it's simpler
to install the BSD uucp programs if you have sources.

Complain bitterly to your DEC salesperson...
