Hi. My incoming uucp logins have all of the sudden died! Here's the problem from the uulog: FAILED (BAD LOGIN/MACHINE COMBINATION) I am running SCO Unix 3.2.2/MC with the security relaxment. All the logins worked a week or two ago. Please advise anyone... Thanks! Oh yes... My uucp dialouts still work!

You need to make sure that the "LOGNAME" entry contains the login name which remote sites use to log into your machine, AND that the "MACHINE" entry contains a list of their node names, delimited by colons (:). There is probably an administrators guide to uucp somewhere in your documentation, which will explain the Permissions file in more detail. -- Jan Mikkelsen janm@dramba.neis.oz.AU or janm%dramba.neis.oz@metro.ucc.su.oz.au "She really is."
