I'm trying to connect to another site via uucp. The other site
can call me and connect fine -- all files transfer OK, but I
can't seem to make connection with him. The dial goes OK, login
goes OK, but uucp startup gives a protocol error with him
logging an error saying that site pwa-b is not vaild for
connection or something to that effect. Since he sends me a reject
in the protocol (a capital R), the connection goes away. Obviously
he needs to put my machine name in a file somewhere. He's a novice
and I'm not familiar with his version of uucp and he's an hour drive
away. The specifics:
my system: VAX 11/780, Berleley 4.2, standard Berkeley uucp
his sys: AT&T 3B1 (UNIX-PC #7300) Version 3.0 of the OS. Standard uucp
on that system.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
