I tried the uucp command suggested in the Digest, and it failed. The problem is with uucp'ing from/to sites we cannot dial directly. Thus, uucp foo!/usr/spool/uucppublic/bar my_bar works fine, but uucp sytek!menlo70!ucbvax!/usr/spool/uucppublic/bar my_bar fails. (This was the command I tried, essentially. Only the terminal pathnames are changed). Is this a general (mis?)feature of uucp? or do we have an out-of-date version? --Berry Kercheval (ucbvax!menlo70!sytek!zehntel!berry) ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
