Hi netlanders,

after a reasonable amount of RTFM, including the Sun Answerbook
I give up finally and hope to find a more experienced sysadmin
to help me out:

: 54 dem@zurich:/usr/lib/uucp> Uutry -r1 -x9 bii
: ./uucico -r1 -sbii  -x9 >/tmp/bii 2>&1&
: tmp=/tmp/bii
: mchFind called (bii)
: list (rmail) num = 1
: list (/) num = 1
: list (/) num = 1
: list (ALL) num = 1
: _Request (TRUE), _Switch (TRUE), _CallBack (FALSE), _MyName (), _Commands ALL
: chdir(/var/spool/uucp/bii)
: conn(bii)
: Retry time set to 0 minutes
: Device Type TCP wanted
: ProtoStr = et
: Internal caller type TCP
: tcpdial host bii.bruker.com, port 540
: family: 2
: port: 540
: addr: c0844603
: set interface TCP
: processdev: calling setdevcfg(uucico, TCP)
: getto ret 6
: chat: TCGETA failed, errno 45
: expect: ("") 
: got it
: sendthem (BREAK
: ^M)
: expect: (in:)
: login:got it
: sendthem ([ correct login id ... ]^M)
: expect: (ssword:)
:  Password:got it
: sendthem ([ correct password ... ]^M)
: imsg > Login incorrect.imsg >imsg >imsg >imsg >imsg >imsg >imsg [...]

/etc/uucp/Systems reads:

bii Any;0 TCP - bii.bruker.com "" \K in:-\r-in:-\r-in: [ rest omitted ]

It is in the chat script, but no combination whatsoever would
change the error msg line, reading 'chat: TCGETA failed, errno 45'

TCGETA is related to ioctl()/termio(), that's all I have.

Any pointers welcome, I'll summarize.

(BTW: Sun 4/280, SunOS 4.1.1, Internet Gateway: NetBlazer)
