Wierd problems with /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions

[J. Eric Townsend]

(3b1 w/ 3.0 unix and BNU/HDB)

Here's the problem:
I want to uuto some files from uhnix1 to flatline.  We have
a mail/news connection that works just fine.  I have the following
as an entry for uhnix1 in /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions

LOGNAME=uhnix1	\
	REQUEST=yes SENDFILES=yes \
	READ=/usr/spool WRITE=/usr/spool



Here's the output of Uutry uhnix1

And so on and so on...

/usr/spool and /usr/spool/uucppublic are chmod 777, if that 
makes any difference..
