HDB uucp with unix-pc and sun

[Thomas J. Pusateri]

I am having trouble establishing two way communication with HDB uucp.
If any one can suggest any ideas, I would greatly appreciate it them.
Basically, I have a ATT 3b1 3.51m running HDB uucp from THE STORE
connected to a SUN workstation SUNOS 4.1 running HDB uucp. I can
send files from the unix-pc to the sun without any problem but I can
never send files from the sun to the unix-pc. It doesn't matter who
initiates the connection, if the file is going from the unix-pc to
the sun it works.

However, if it is going from the sun to the unix-pc, I always get errors.
The error in the /usr/spool/uucp/.Admin/error looks like this
ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid: 316 (10/17-11:39:48) PKXSTART ret  (0)
[FILE: pk1.c, LINE: 331]

and the output in the audit file looks like the following. Anyone have
any good clues out there?

Thanks for any help
