UUCP Over TCP/IP

[responding to mparker at chip.UUCP's question on the TCP/IP UUCP service]

from our /etc/inetd.conf:
uucpd  stream  tcp  nowait  uucp  /etc/uucpd  uucpd

from our /etc/services:
uucp    540/tcp    uucpd    # uucp daemon

from our /usr/lib/uucp/L.sys:
dsacg1 Any TCP uucp dsacg1 ogin:--ogin:--ogin: Udsacg3 ssword: PASSWORD
