We are having problems with UUCP over a modem connection.
TCP/IP based uucp will connect from a remote machine to the local
machine fine with no errors, however when we connect from a remote
machine via a modem, the login id and passwd are accepted fine, and the
getty/uucico just dies halfway through the standard welcome banner.
You know "Last Login.... etc etc" and the modem just returns NO
CARRIER. Normal login-in's function fine, successfully running getty
to a bash or csh prompt, and working fine from then on.
I believe the problem lies in the configuration of uucico, but I
cannot think why it would work TCP/IP but not over the modem. Any
hints/tips/suggestions gratefully recieved.
The recei comp.mail.uucp ving machine with the modems is reporting the
following error
ERROR: write: input/output error
Many thanks
Neil
