HP X.25/9000 User's Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (5900-1523, August 2011)
2 – Error and warning logging.
3 – Error, warning, information, and status logging for troubleshooting.
HP recommends using log level 0 (no logging) for normal operation.
reverse_charge Optional (default is disable). Specifies the reverse charge option for call
setup at this address. Possible settings are disabled (or disable) and
enabled (or enable). When reverse charge is enabled, x29uucpd sends
out call request packets with reverse charge requested.
x3 Optional. This is the X.3 configuration set name for UUCP file transfers. If
this entry is used in /etc/x25/x29hosts, the configuration set name
with its set of X.3 parameters must be specified in /etc/x25/x3config.
All legal X.3 parameters contained in the x3config file are downloaded
at connection time.
If there is more than one X.3 configuration set with the same set name in
/etc/x25/x3config, the first one is used.If there is no configuration set
name in x29hosts or matching X.3 configuration set name in x3config,
the default parameters are downloaded (see “X.3 Parameter descriptions”
(page 113) for information on X.3 parameters). x29uucpd operates in line
mode only.
Configuring system and device files for UUCP
The following example describes the configuration procedure for cu, uucp and uucico transfers
between two systems. In this example, the local system is called “dave” and the remote system is
called “bill.” The two systems are configured to handle file transfers originating from the local
system (dave) and received by the remote system (bill).
NOTE: Refer to the man pages for information on x25uucp device entry parameters.
At the “dave” system:
1. Make sure that the directory /var/spool/uucp/LCK..x29 exists. If it doesn’t exist, create
it.
2. Configure the usr/lib/uucp/Systems file as follows:
bill Any;5 dev_bill, f 19200 - ““ \r\d\r\d\r login: -BREAK
-login: uucp word: test
where:
bill – is the name of the destination system (7 characters maximum).
Any – indicates that bill can be called at any time.
5 – is the retry duration (dave will try again to connect to bill in 5
minutes).
dev_bill – is the name of the remote system declared in dave’s Devices file.
f – is the file transfer protocol. HP recommends using f rather than g for
better performance.
19200 – is the transfer rate (it must be set at the same speed as that specified in the dave’s Devices
file).
““ \r\d\r\d\r login: -BREAK -login: uucp word: test – is login
information declaring uucp as the user for uucp and uucico processes,
with the password “test”. The password creates a link to the entry in the
/etc/passwd file of bill.
3. Make sure that the following entry appears in the /usr/lib/uucp/Devices file:
dev_bill x29/bill - 19200 direct
x29/bill has a maximum of 14 characters. The x29/bill entry creates a link with the
pad_uucp entry in the x29hosts file.
4. Add the following lines to the /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions file:
UUCP support (x29uucpd) 105
