I would like these modems to be running flat out whenever a back log exists. The problem is that at present the uusched program starts up every hour and checks for any outstanding jobs. If it finds one is fires off a uucico for it and waits for it to finish ! So, if I want the ten lines to be going flat out then I would need to start up ten uusched's to do this ? I would have thought uusched would have forked the uucico and kept looking rather than stopping until each is finished. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Nigel Harwood Post: Coles Myer Ltd, PO Box 2000 Tooronga 3146, Australia Phone: +61 3 829 6090 E-mail: nigel%cmsfl@labtam.oz.au
