First of all, I thank all those who helped me about HDB-UUCP. Now, I have
no problems.

The '-h' parameter solves the bidirectional (direct) connection with two
HDB-UUCP versions. uugetty works very well.

I also tried bi-directional connection with modems and for the first time,
I couldn't succeed. But I checked the hardware and software both. I called
the technical person for modems and we realized that the one of the modems
is erroneous. We replaced the modem with newer one and now everything
works with modem, too.

To sum up, both with modem and with direct cable, bidirectional connection
is possible with HDB-UUCP. There are no errors. cu works pretty well except
its slowness (I use 1200 baud). I haven't tried uucico over modem conection
yet. I will try it tomorrow.

By the way, I am using NCR Tower's under UnixV.3 . I appreciate the help of
NCR-Turkey SSD (System Support Department) since I told them what to do.
They were having no experience. :-( :-)

I thank Mike Wescott for his valuable help that I could never think about it
( the '-h' parameter). I still have no idea why I have to use '-h' parameter
with two uugetty's at each end. Manual says that it is only needed with
communicating with getty.
