The Interlan boxes are attempting to do flow control on their data sources to avoid buffer overrun, and the xon/xoffs added to the packets are driving uucp bonkers. Now, does anyone have a fix for this? I cannot eliminate flow control on NTS boxes, but I can tell them to do EIA flow control (with DSR rather than xon/xoff) and then ignore it. I presume that packets will then be corrupted by Interlan. Will uucp recover? What other possibilities are there? Thanks again, to all the big brothers out there. -- Lyle McElhaney (hao,brl-bmd,nbires,csu-cs,scgvaxd)!denelcor!lmc
