This query is posted to info-vax and info-unix, and copied to Russell Crook
(...!seismo!mnetor!spectrix!rmc).

In early May, Russell posted a request on info-vax for information about
uucp for VMS.  We now have an immediate interest in it for VMS, if it
exists.  Does it?

Here's the specific application.  A XENIX-based Tandy 6000 system, part of
our local PABX, will be generating long-distance call detail records which
must be transferred daily to our central VAXcluster, which will enter the
records into our financial system and generate bills.  A dedicated RS-232
link will be used for the transfer.  Our goal is to make the transfer
automated and error-free.

The Tandy has a uucp, which is why we're looking in that direction.
Alternate suggestions for transferring the data are welcome.

Thanks in advance for your help!
