Level 9 adds a lot of information tha > you normally wouldn't see. Today I tried debug level 9 to trace down the problem. I got a lots of output in my Waffle UUCP log because the uucico session worked! It looks like the DOS Waffle to Coherent uucico problem is now fixed. MWC has posted new Coherent UUCP binaries on mwcbbs as of today. Note, the problem I had with DOS Waffle was only with the UUCP binaries on mwcbbs as they were debugging new UUCP code. I have no reason to believe that DOS Waffle would have the same problem with the earlier UUCPs for Coherent 3.0 or 3.1. Anyway it looks like the uucico problem is fixed with the new UUCP binaries on mwcbbs. --- Joseph Perry Osceola, IN USA Internet: jep%baugo@nstar.rn.com UUCP: uunet!mailrus!iuvax!nstar!baugo!jep -or- jep@baugo.UUCP ---
