password & login are correct and several SCO OS5 boxes connect in to server
via uucp over TCP, but linux box doesn't want to. Any suggestions about
what to look at/for?

thanx

I suspect that you're running into a parity mismatch, but it's
been at least four years since I did uucp into a standard 3.2v5.xxx
system, as we either switched to Taylor uucp on SCO or to Linux
systems for most of our uucp traffic. I remember that there were
some special setup parameters on SCO systems necessary to talk to
old SunOS boxen that did 7bit even parity instead of 8-bit none.
It would require some digging through old archives for me to get
the details, but perhaps this will get you started in the right
direction.

The chat sequence I have on one of our Linux systems that calls
an SCO OpenServer system does have some delays in it which may
also help. Here are the chat specs on our Taylor uucp sys file:
chat-timeout 120
chat "" \r ogin:-BREAK-ogin:-BREAK-ogin: \ducamco ssword: \dxxxxxx

Instead of giving money to found colleges to promote learning, why don't
they pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting anybody from learning
anything? If it works as good as the Prohibition one did, why, in five
years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.

This is what I have on my RH box in /etc/uucp/sys

connecting to an sco 505 system
works like a buzz.
