Get beyond all those silly limits. Use Taylor UUCP. Ian Taylor is about to  
release a new version 1.04 which support a UUCP-i protocol (bidirectional,  
16 packets in window size and a packetsize of 1K).

You can also tell Taylor UUCP to use the g-protocol with a packetsize up  
to 4K and windowsize up to 7!

And it's fast!!!

I'm running a main HUP with 8 nodes below me, and all the transferrates  
was close to 3 times higer after we started to use Taylor UUCP!

It is easy to configuere and easy to compile (if you change /usr/include  
back to what it should be)

Tell me if you need more help,
Karsten,
