IMHO MNP1-4 won't help much UUCP-g (if UUCP-g is implemented effectively, of course). Why run one error-correctin proto on top of another using approx the same technique? Aside of your question - MNP5 is worth using. >2. If you are running MNP1-4, is "g" the best protocol to use? If not, what > is? IMHO it is not. You'd better use "f" or even "e", providing, of course, that your modems/drivers treat hardware flow control right. -- Dmitry V.
