Has anyone out there ever got the dial(3C) function call to work???

I've got a 3B2/600 running SysVr3.1.1 here, which comes with HDB uucp.

This crazy dial() call uses the old style uucp files, which I've re-created.
(Why be consistant???)

It seems that no matter what I tell it, it returns an error code indicating 
that the device I specify is unknown. But - it should be known...

Can anyone please help???? 

Any ideas/examples would be MUCH appreciated...
