	I have a problem similair to that of the problem of someone trying
to establish a uucp-link between a Next and a Sun. I have a minix system
and have a uucp link to the Dutch "minixug" system. This runs fine. However,
when I try to let my uucico call in to the "htsa" (I'm posting this from
htsa.htsa.aha.nl) the htsa uucico seems brain-dead. Everything goes
allright: login, password, shere= , inita initb initc. But then my system
sends a request to send files ("S file1 file2....") , or it does a
hangup/exchange request ("H") and the "htsa" never replies... After I have
sent the "S" or "H" message three times, I get a "RJ" message, and then
thing start over again. I can't figure out what is going wrong. There is
also another system, "wilt" (wilt.htsa.aha.nl) that calls into the "htsa"
and that goes perfectly right. My uucp link with minixug is fine also.
But my system(==drinkel) -> "htsa" .. no way Jose. I am running Minix
1.5 with some NLMUG extensions, and I used a special "minix" version of uucp,
as well as the "1985 usenet BSD uucp". They both have the same problem
(with htsa, that is). The "htsa" is running HP-UX 7.0 and HP uucp.
If some kind soul could give me a hint what is going on here.. I am going
mad. I am so desperate that I even begin to understand the uucp protocol and
the G-packet driver, I really did my best (nights without sleep..)
Thanx!
