I am new to the Unix PC (7300) (3B1), and have some general questions.

Does anyone have a roadmap to uucp for the 7300?  The various files seem
to have changed their names (/usr/lib/uucp).  For instance, Devices seems
to have become L-devices.  Not all of them are so self-evident, however.
What is up, and why?

I also can't get cu to recognize a system name.  My file L.sys (which
I assume is full of system names) doesn't seem to be read by cu.
I need to supply the telephone number.  Worse than that, cu needs me
to specify the device using -l/dev/ph1.  I can make (and have made) a
script file to get cu to run correctly, but that is Ugly.

Last, we often hang the telephone line when a remote system doesn't hang
itself up (via the telephone manager, not cu).  The only solution
we have come up with here is to shut the system down (hardly elegant).
Is there any other way, such as killing a particular process?

Adthanksvance,

David Laurance
