We are having trouble with Microport SysV AT 2.4 as well as Microport SysV 386 3.0e. All the time, our machines poll at a site, the uucp stops after a couple of blocks, sometimes after 500 Bytes, and sometimes after 5 Mb. Then the uucico on one machine terminates, and the other is still runnung until the next reboot. We have an 80286 with 4 Mb of Ram, and too an 80386 with 4 Mb of Ram. We use the normal serial Ports of Dos, Com1 and Com2. Shall we used intelligent serial cards, or is there another reason ? Thnx for helping to fix that problem, Greets, -- Eddy Schmidt | usenet: ..uunet!unido!pfm!nadia!eddy bix:eddi Klingenstr.29 | Mailbox: *49 711 484464 1200/2400 Baud D-7000 Stuttgart 1 | *49 711 461592 1200/2400 Baud Tel.: *49 711 485840 | Beware of programmers who carry screwdrivers !!

He added the igloo patches (along with 16550 serial chip) and it seemed to resoulve his problem. The systems now talk to each other useing TrailBlaziers. If you want the info on the 16550 and the source code you can get it off my bbs. 415-796-3686. File: 16550.dirver located in the unix_comm files area. The chip cost 13.00 at Fry's electronics. ---Bob -- Bob Palowoda Work: {sun,decwrl,pyramid}!megatest!palowoda Home: {sun}ys2!fiver!palowoda BBS: (415)796-3686 2400/1200 Voice:(415)745-7749
