When i installed the new version of Xenix/386 (2.3.2), suddenly the
nodename was cut to 7 letters. But my previous nodename was 8 letters,
and i had to install the 2.3.1 uucico again to even get a connection
with my feed.
Why this change?
8 letter nodenames are completely legal.
Is there any remedy?
