A neighboring site just converted to 4.3BSD.  We've had a uucp connection
with them for several years.  We switched to HDuucp some time ago and had no
problems connecting/communicating with 4.2 sites, System V machines, and even
with a pyramid.  Since our neighbor converted to 4.3 all we've been able to
get is a connection to startup, begin work and then die with:

ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid: 10566 (9/8-21:33:17) WRONG ROLE  (1) [FILE: cntrl.c, LINE: 397]

Anybody else seen this? 
Fixed it? ... How?
Anybody have any good ideas?
What's protocol 't' ?

Looks like I get to answer my own questions.

I don't know, but ...

The 4.3 system didn't have a /usr/spool/uucp/STST directory. They did but it
had another name.  I mv'd it and everything works.

For TCP/IP connections. Sounds like the equivalent of the HDuucp 'e' protocol.

We're running 4.3bsd and have been talking to at least 4 HDuucp
neighbors without any problems.  They are cbosgd, cbatt, ukecc,
and a 3b2 or two in our machine room.

protocol t is a tcp/ip gadget and shouldn't be used over a modem line.
I'd say that's the problem.
