Our Eunice "uucp" seems to be working well now, and I can make our
command files available if anyone is interested. These require only
a binary license.
We poll and are called by 6 sites, and CPU's of 4? different manufacturers,
and receive netnews. These command files are for the uucp portion only.
These solve many problems, such as:
* /usr/lib/uucp/.XQTDIR getting blown away,
* Modem refuses to hang up after polling,
* Need to shut off uuxqt to do news expire,
* Getting the Hayes modem to dial,
* Polling on schedule and on demand,
* Running uucp in its own account (not as system),
* Keeping uuxqt around without wasting cpu time (faster response,less clutter)
* Waiting for the outgoing modem to be available,
* Setting the protections and ownerships.
* log files accumulating in sysmgr's home directory.
