[comp.sys.mips] uucico assert errors on M/120

larry@mitra.uucp (Larry Williamson) (03/06/91)

While setting up uucico on our Mips M/120, I've run into an odd
problem.  Our dialout modem is a trailblazer.

When dialed into another site with a trailblazer, connection is made
at 9600 baud, uucico is happy. (The m/120 drops the occassional
character, but still everything works fine).

When dialed in to a site with a 2400 buad modem, everything starts off
fine, our machine logs in okay, initial handshaking looks good, but
then we get an assert error....

rmesg - 'H' ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid: 13659 (3/5-14:09:19) PKCGET READ  (-1) [FILE: pk1.c, LINE: 432]

This is unfortunately not a very helpful message to me. Can anyone
offer some insight as to what I may look for. 

-Larry

PS. if it is of any help I've included the uucico conversation that
preceeds this failure. It is as follows....

Me too.  It's not necessarily restricted to 2400 bps.  Every night, I
get these error messages on an M/1000 running RISC/os 4.51:
