On a DEC ultrix computer, either a DECstation (mips based) or
VAX (CVAX based) is it possible to run UUCP both dial in and
dial out through a serial port on a DEC terminal server?

It is definitely possible to do incoming uucp thru a terminal server, or at least it was until 3.0 somehow or other screwed up raw mode handling in LAT. It'll still work, but you'll get a lot of errors and retries. Outgoing is more problematical, I would say that you should be able to do it with the new features for associating LAT ports with LAT pseudo-devices that show up in 3.0, however I haven't got around to implementing it yet. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)

I would like to hear an answer to this also. The question was asked once before here about problems with protocol based file transfers through a terminal server, but I never saw or missed the response, if any. I have tried X/YMODEM with a direct connect line and UUCP through both a modem and direct lines through a DECserver 200 with no success. I set the port exactly as described in the manual, but no luck. I sure would like to know how this is supposed to be done. It apparently works under VMS, so I am wondering if it has something to do with the how the port is set under Ultrix. -- David White Grass Valley Group, Inc. VOICE: +1 916.478.3052 P.O.
