We have Several sites we need to communicate with.  In our primary
location we have predominantly suns, but a few RS/6000's.  Our
uucp server has always been a Sun.  It is currently running 4.1.1.

We have serveral remote sites coming on line with RS6000's now and
wish to communicate with them as we always have with our Sun sites.

I can get the uucp from a IBM to the IBM working without any problem.
When I try to get the Sun to be the uucp server, the connection hangs.

When I watch the communication, both with the debug option, and a line
analyzer, I see the IBM present the login, the sun responds 
with nuucp<CR> ( the login name is "nuucp" followed by a Carriage Return),
but the IBM never responds with the passwd prompt.  

When I try to observe the same between the two IBM's, the protocol
is the same, (nuucp<CR>) but the receiving machine provides the passwd
prompt and everything goes ok.

Any ideas?
