Yeah, yeah, i know -- you don't have honey danber uucp; but i'm afraid that,
short of writing some kludgey scheme to rotate (L.sys) files around containing
different orderings of the lines to use, you're stuck with what ya got.

sorry.

What i have to do on my one xenix system is occasionally get a uustat -mall and
note which systems have not been contacted in a week or more and then, if
necessary, manually reorder the appropriate lines in L.sys and force a call,
then reorder again, if necessary.

A real pain in the arss.
