Hello, I have a couple of problems that have come up since I have started running SLIP at home. I am connecting from my home machine (NeXTstation Color running 3.0) to a SLIP capable terminal server using TransSys Dial-Up IP Software - version 920904 on my NeXT. Things like telnet, rlogin, finger, talk, etc. work just fine. First problem, when I log into another NeXT and try to -NXHost to my home machine I see the modem lights flash a few times and then get the message: DPS client library error: Could not form connection, host home for no apparent reason ( i have public windower server set). Second problem, I had a uucp link set up that worked just fine via a modem. Having SLIP, I decided to switch the uucp link to TCP. When I issue the command uucico -r1 -x9 -sacus1 I get the messages: finds (acus1) called getto: call no. acus1.cc.uky.edu for sys acus1 Using TCP to call bsdtcpopn host acus1.cc.uky.edu, port 540 TCP CLOSE called closed fd 5 tcpopen failed: errno 61 root acus1 (12/30-23:05-287) FAILED (Connection refused) root acus1 (12/30-23:05-287) FAILED (call to acus1 ) Noticing errno 61 I tried to telnet straight to port 540 and sure enough my connection was refused...I checked and I can telnet to port 540 on most other Unix machines but anytime I go to a NeXT the connection is refused. Any information on how to "fix" these two problems would be greatly appreciated.
