1. For telnet, add the following entry to the /usr/lib/uucp/Systems file on the originating CommKit Host Interface connected host.

e_host Any DK,g 0 area/exch/60name.telnet..-M:uucp:e_hostin:--in: nuucp\012 word: password\012

Note: -M:rawmay be entered instead of -M:uucpin the line above.

2. Async-to-TCP also offers the TCP socket service (tcpsock) which provides a higher speed transfer pipe for uucp service. For tcpsock, the administrator should add the following line to the /usr/lib/uucp/Systems file:

e_host Any DK,g 0 area/exch/60name.tcpsock..e_host:540 in:--in: nuucp word: password

However, tcpsock can only be used if the LAN host supports the UUCP service over the TCP/IP protocol (specified as 540 in the /etc/Services file on the host). Otherwise, the telnet method should be used.

e_host is the host name of the Ethernet-connected host, which must be entered into the LCS60 configuration database using the addhost command if the LCS60 has not been configured to use a DNS server. area and exch represent the area and exchange of the data switch to which the LCS60 is connected, and 60name is the name of the LCS60 performing the telnet. For tcpsock, 540 is the service type. nuucp is the login ID corresponding to the UUCP service on the Ethernet- connected host, and password is the login password for the nuucp login on the Ethernet-connected host.

For example, for the network shown in Figure 7-1, the string for telnet would be:

moon Any DK,g 0 mlkway/earth/brown.telnet..-M:uucp:moon in:--in: nuucp\012 word: \

password\012

Note: The above entry must be entered on one line. Enter spaces as shown.and for tcpsock would be:

moon Any DK,g 0 mlkway/earth/brown.tcpsock..moon:540 in:--in: nuucp word: password

Both ends of the uucp connection must use the uucp "g" protocol.
