-
- Yes, it's possible. I have UUCP over TCP/IP between my 3B2 and a Sun3.
-
- It's important to note that UUCP works fine from the 3B2 to the Sun,
- but there are a lot of problems going the other way. First of all,
- there is no uucp daemon on the 3B2. I got one off the net and
- compiled it, and although it works, it sometimes hangs. Because
- of this, I only have the 3B2 poll the sun, not the other way
- around.
-
- Anyway, this is what the Devices file entry looks like:
-
- TCPIP,eg tcp - - TLI \D
-
- This is what the Systems file entry looks like:
-
- serveme Any TCPIP - \x0002021cc0000002 ogin: Ugagme word: password
-
- This is what it means:
-
- \x0002021cc0000002
-
- 0002 - Address family AF_INET
- 021c - port 540 (decimal)
- c0 - 192 (These 4 numbers are the other node's
- 00 - 00 IP address, in this case 192.0.0.2)
- 00 - 00
- 02 - 02
-
-
- Good luck.
