In a similar vein to the article about 4.2 uucp timing out, we seem to
have a similar (same?) problem under 4.2. We are transmitting between
a VAX 750 running 4.2 and an 11/44 running System 3. The medium is a
9600 baud link managed over Interlan NTS10 Ethernet terminal servers.
I have managed to get the two systems to call each other over the Interlan
but generally everything dies in mid-conversation. The Master uucp
(running -x4 debug) complains about alarm1-5, and quits.

The Interlan interface uses xon/xoff flow control to keep its buffers
manageable. Could this be a problem? Can uucp handle the flow control,
or is it all transparent and handled in the tty handler? Its just an
idea.

Anyway, I would appreciate any help anyone can offer with this problem.
By the way, is there any problem moving the 4.2 uucp over to the System 3
system on the '44? Has anyone done it?

Thanks for your advice and assistance.
