- August and Respected Colleagues! I'm having a terrible time
- uucp-ing from my Coherent 3.2.1 to my local newsfeed, highlite.
- gotham.com(the computer from which I'm sending this). I can send
- stuff from home to highlite just fine, but when my uucp tries to
- grab highlites's, there are lots of (lost packets) and (out of
- order) messages when I "verbose" at level 7. The sysop at highlite
- swears it is my uucp and I have to believe him, esp after a couple
- of experiments.
-
- I have read here tales of uusecure.tar.Z and other fixes, but are
- they available for 3.2.1? I don't find them in Contents.news(wrong
- name, but you know what I mean)
-
- A bit of diagnostic info. The unsuccessful transaction leaves TM.*
- files in /usr/spool/uucp. Sometimes these files are 384 bytes,
- sometimes they are 4224 bytes; 4224 = 11 * 384.
-
- Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated!
