Has anybody gotten Taylor UUCP 1.02a or 1.03 to work with NeXTOS 2.1? Call out
is fine but call-in gives loads of problems. mainly two:

	a dropped connection after a call in gives signal INT or RDWR instead
of HUP.
	the port stayes blocked after a call-in and one has to do TIOCEXCL on
it to get it working again.

People running tUUCP on call-in NeXTOS 2.1 systems are hereby invited to react
and to help.

Thanks,

I've been running Taylor for about a month and it's been working fine.  I  
installed 1.03 on saturday morning.  The only problem with 1.03 is that dialup  
seems to be fried now.  When the modem gets a RING it picks up then  
__immediately__ hangs up.  So fast that the line keeps ringing.  I can't figure  
it out, and I can't seem to fix it, but from looking at the lights I think  
getty is sending something to it...  I'm pretty sure the port isn't blocked  
since when a dial-out completes DTR goes low and the modem resets, etc...

Sending SIGHUP to process 1 doesn't fix it either...
