Yes, it is. On the Amiga side, you need telser.device. Configure a
telser unit for "dumb" TCP connection (telser.hosts/bits=00000000001)
and configure your UUCP to know that telser ACU (L.ports) and to use
it as "serial" device to call your server (L.sys) on TCP port 540
(atdtserver.do.main,540). Use a "dumb" protocol (t, e); smart modem
protocols are overkill, as TCP already assures safe transmission.

The server needs to support it, too, of course. Taylor UUCP is capable
of doing so, but don't ask me how to configure it.
