When run with Uutry, I see bunches of "alarm " messages and eventually the transfer fails. My suspicion is flow control is not being used/set up correctly by uucico. This in turn is causing a loss of data. My modem is a Telebit TrailBlazerPlus/T200 set to run at 9600 baud and to use XON/XOFF flow control. My OS is 386ix 2.0.2 from Interactive Systems. I did a "stty -a speed 9600 baud; line = 0; intr = DEL; quit = ^|; erase = #; kill = @; eof = ^f; eol = ^a; swtch = ^` >-parenb -parodd cs8 -cstopb hupcl cread -clocal -loblk >-ignbrk -brkint -ignpar -parmrk -inpck -istrip -inlcr -igncr -icrnl -iuclc >-ixon -ixany -ixoff >-isig -icanon -xcase -echo -echoe -echok -echonl -noflsh >-opost -olcuc -onlcr -ocrnl -onocr -onlret -ofill -ofdel IXON and IXOFF are not ON!! I have search through all the documents that I have trying to specify that uucico should use IXON/IXOFF protocol to no avail. For that matter, I have never seen any reference to the hardware control lines that are part of the tty lines. Is there a way to configure uucico to use IXON/IXOFF flow control? Is there a way to specify the use of the hardware flow control? Thanks for any help you can provide! John M.
