UUCP over TCP

by Prem Sumetpong - » Fri, 17 Feb 1995 12:02:50

I am trying to set up UUCP over TCP. I followed the manuals but yet I am
not able to connect or receive using the above process. I want to change
my newsfeed using UUCP over TCP.

Doing a uulog -x I always get the error

XQT DENIED (rnews) errors.

I am using rnews that comes with inn. I have set up the permissions file
for my feeder too. Any one can guide me or give me the correct procedure ?

I would be very thankful
Prem

1. UUCP over ethernet (TCP/IP) ?

Hi all:

I remember seeing somebody talk about UUCP over ethernet ( TCP/IP )
in the not-too-distant-past. At the time I wasn't interested ( ain't
that the way ?).

The file "/etc/services" mentions the uucp daemon both on SCO ver 3.2.2
conference 531/tcp chat
netnews 532/tcp readnews
netwall 533/udp # -for emergency broadcasts
uucp 540/tcp uucpd # uucp daemon
remotefs 556/tcp rfs_server rfs # Brunhoff remote filesystem

and on Sun OS ver 4.1.2
shell 514/tcp cmd # no passwords used
printer 515/tcp spooler # line printer spooler
courier 530/tcp rpc # experimental
uucp 540/tcp uucpd # uucp daemon
biff 512/udp comsat
who 513/udp whod

In Sun 4.1.2 the file /etc/uucp/Devices also ( tantalizingly ) mentions
uucp via TCP, to wit;
# The Devices file is used in conjunction with the Dialers file.
# Types that appear in the 5th field must be either built-in
# functions (801, Sytek, TCP, Unetserver, DK)
# or standard functions whose name appears in the first
# field in the Dialers file.
[ stuff deleted ]
#

# TCP,et - - Any TCP -

Authors Kochan & Wood writing in Unix Networking mention uucp via TCP
in passing, but not in any detail.

I've looked all over many local systems searching for "uucpd" with no
luck.

How about some pointers?
