We're also running Ultrix-32 1.1 on a VAX-750; from the replies on the
net I am beginning to suspect our modems (Microcom's) are munging something
although I told them to use 8 bits, no parity.  Oh well.
Wasn't there traffic on the net a while back describing some uucp problem
between Ultrix and 4.3?
