Message-ID: <2955@puff.cs.wisc.edu> Date: 10 Sep 89 07:23:41 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: U of Wisconsin CS Dept Lines: 33 Hello, Since people have been posting things about uucp lately, here's my problem. I'm new to this uucp thing, so if this is a stupid error, one that everyone gets, well I'm sorry for not knowing, but I need help anyway. This is what happens: I try to poll tbaas, but I get a Handshake error. Any ideas? Here's my LOGFILE tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:44:25) (C,4188,0) C.tbaas (bldfl) tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:44:55) (C,4188,0) OK (DIAL ph0 P**phone # deleted** 23) tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:45:03) (C,4188,0) SUCCEEDED (call to tbaas ) tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:45:05) (C,4188,0) Shere=tbaas (HERE) tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:45:10) (C,4188,0) harrie (send Myname) tbaas!uucp (9/10-1:45:14) (C,4188,0) HANDSHAKE FAILED (^M^M) I'm also trying to feed another computer where I work. It is running BNU, though (at least that's what they call it. Looks like HDB to me) It's an IBM rt running AIX. When I try to poll my machine with it, it will log in correctly, but after getting a "Valid Shere=harrie" I get an error, (you guessed it) Handshake failed. What is going wrong, and what can I do to correct it? Thanks in advance!! (you guys know everything about how to fix my machine) - sparkie p.s. please e-mail responses to the following address, NOT the address listed above: ___ ___ ___ ___ _ _ _ ___ / __\| . \/ . \| . \| |/ /|_|| _ | \___\| __/| || _ /| < | || _[ sparkie@uhura.cs.wisc.edu \___/|_| |_|_||_|\\|_|\_\|_||___|
