by Hi *,
Here's the setup:
One machine is called 'muts.gds.nl'. It runs Taylor 1.04, and
has it's outbound mail via uucp, to 'pipo.gds.nl'
You guessed: one system's uucp name is muts, the other is
called pipo.
I got it working to the extent where I can pick up e-mail by
dialing in.
I also got service #540 working, at least, from pipo, I can telnet
to muts, on port 540, and log in successfully; after which I
see an uucico header: &*(&*(&shere=muts ;-)
However, when I run uucico -*s from pipo, the log files tell
me 'connection refused' at the pipo side.
Nothing shows up at muts. It seems it is doing a TCP trans ok,
but on the wrong TCP port.
The log files at pipo will show a failed attempt to contact
named at muts (should be, as I am not running named at
muts), and then this 'failed...' msg.
Muts is in the /etc/hosts file at pipo, and can be found thru
other services.
All the other TCP progs/services including are working ok.
The Devices and Systems file are, to my knowledge, configured
for TCP use. Also: (I am running 10baseT) traffic shows up at
the ethernet concentrator.
If YOU always wanted to tell me how stupid I am, then THIS is
also post it here, so as to save other poor souls from the
torment I'm going through..
Yours Truly,
