HELP! Problem uucp'ing from SHOP

[Thad P Floryan]

Willian Kayser is reporting problems contacting the "shop" ...

The enclosed material comprises the "shop" entries on my system; the ones
uncommented are those I use presently (at 2400 baud (yeah, I'm the eternal
optimist and check every week to see if the catalog was updated! :-) )

Since you're using the OBM, just be SURE the /usr/lib/uucp/L-devices has
a line line the following:

OBM ph0 UNIXPC 1200

My file contains:

ACU tty000 ark 9600
#ACU tty000 cts 2400
OBM ph0 UNIXPC 1200
DIR tty004 0 9600

The uucp commands you showed in your example were ok.

Without checking, I have the "feeling" the "*70,," in your "phone number"
may not be interpreted properly by the UNIXpc's OBM.  Advice: delete the
"call waiting" service from your phone; it's a TOTAL waste of money; any
call that's IMPORTANT will be made again and again until they get through
to you; remember: people call YOU at THEIR convenience, not yours.  Food
for thought, no?  :-)

# Only ONE of the groups should be enabled (i.e. no "#") depending which
# modem is finally made to function correctly.  The OBM (ph0) does work, but
# 1200 baud is a pain.
