Make sure that your Devices and Dialers files are correct - in every case, that is where the changes are made to correct the above mentioned trouble. It seems that the script that AT&T put in for their own 2224CEO gives you only *one* choice, yet the modem/BNU can be optioned for about six different modes (e,g,u). Hack away at those two files. One symptom is that 'cu' works fine both in/out, and that you can send files but not receive (on about 50% of the cases.) -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Carlo Milono: cmilono@netcom.apple.com or apple!netcom!cmilono | |"When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, | |that the dunces are all in confederacy against him." - Jonathan Swift | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+

I had similar problems doing uucp to an NCR Tower. I believe that getting the SLS that had upgraded UUCP binaries fixed the problem. I also applied patches changing the sliding window size from 3 to 7, as indicated in the release notes (all this assuming XENIX 386). I have no transfer problems at this time. -- Clayton Haapala (clay@uci.com) Unified Communications Inc.

Thanks to everyone that responded here. It turned out to be the AT&T 2224CEO
modem. Once I went out to the other site, I noticed it defaults to provide
Xon/Xoff on the modem side, and the Dialers script does not turn it off.
