Problem: HoneyDanBer UUCP CALLBACK=yes option doesn't set poll file correctly Description: To make the call back option more reliable, HoneyDanBer UUCP plants a poll file so that if the immediate call back fails, it will call again as a part of the regular polling cycle run from uusched. However, when it creates poll files, it creates them in the SPOOL directory instead of the subdirectory for the particular remote, thus making the poll file useless. Repeat-by: In the Permissions file, set CALLBACK=yes for some site(s). Observe that whenever the remote calls up, zero-length poll files show up in SPOOL (/usr/spool/uucp) instead of the particular subdirectory for that remote (i.e., /usr/spool/uucp/remote).
