How about it?  Single people raise children too.  One man and two or
more women could too, or three men and one woman.  The question isn't
who can raise children, but what works best on average.

It isn't a matter of being for or against, but rather a question of what

I have no quarrel with your friend, but this isn't the issue.

I've heard evidence that single parent situations are not ideal for
children.  I know of none which suggest that the typical nuclear
family is best, or even better than gay, lesbian or polygamous family
structures.  Do you?  Or is this supposed to be self-evident?

What strikes me as much closer to self-evidence is the idea that a
child raised in a nontraditional family will be better off if the
parents are not discriminated against by the government.  So, some
positive evidence that these should be discouraged would be nice.  As
it is, it looks like another situation where traditional religious
beliefs have formed the basis for civil law.

For sale:

     Harmon-Kardon 430 AM/FM stereo receiver      $60

     This is a fine 35 watt/ch receiver from the mid-70s.
These HK x30 receivers were considered by many to be some of
the finest receivers of all time.  Their excellent sound
quality, robust construction and good looks make them
classics.

     The 430 is a 35 watt receiver that has HK's famous twin
power supplies, such that power demands on one channel has
no effect on the other channel.  It has a "blackout" dial
scale along with a silver control area.  It has a tape
monitor, high and low filters, and a mono mode button.

I have a membership in an Introduction Service (I can't say which in

service, and I've been more or less happy with the 3 introductions I've
had.

The membership is (obviously) re-sellable, and transferable to
any of their other locations (all over the U.S.).

They are very picky about the people they have involved, and will
screen a perspective buyer of my membership.  The folks who work
at the place will make every effort to please the buyer of this.

For more details, PLEASE send E-mail.  I'll be happy to discuss
price and which service this is privately.

Oh, why am I selling it?  I've met someone that I'm getting very
serious with, and I need the $$.... :-).

			Mazda GLC Hatchback

GLC Means "Great Little Car" and this one has been to me for 7 years,
but I fell for a new one, so I must part with this perfectly usable
little car.  This car can be your friend for many years - and it will not 
eat you out of home at 30mpg!  It holds all the camping gear for
a great trip and even knows the way to Maupin - by heart.  This little 
car is a 5-speed, has cloth seats (in good condition - no kids!), and has
an AM/FM cassette.  Front wheel drive means that it goes through the snow
with little or no difficulties.  How could you go wrong for $2195 (or make
me an offer)?

So what???   Nothing in uucp needs to have advance knowledge of the device name
to be used for inbound "calls".  Not for LAT, nor for mux-type terminal ports.

> Is there a way to ignore/disable the device/username pairing check in the UUCP

uucp enforces no device/username pairing.  

To be sure, there are some circumstances where, through a combination of
circumstances in the systems. and control. files, you might end up with such a
pairing for outbound connections (e.g. the systems file entry for site foobar
specifies a dialer type or line speed which is only available on one port as
defined in the control. file).  But this is sort of by accident.  

The only thing uucp knows about usernames is that each systems file entry for a
neighbor system specifies the username with which that neighbor is allowed to
log in for inbound connections (the 'luser', for 'local user', field). 

There is some special stuff in uucico for outbound calls via LAT ports, but
inbound has *always* worked.  

Just what error messages are you seeing???

In hope that someone else has run into a problem similar to this I have the 
following problem:

I have been running the UUCP package (version 1.3) for several months over a
direct line to an AT&T3B2.  Just a few days ago the remote site was wired for
ethernet and a terminal server was installed.  The process from the VAX to the
3B2 works fine as we defined a permanent lat port (LTA4961) for the VAX to use.
The problem is when the 3B2 "dials" it does not get the LTA4961 port which is
allocated to VAX UUCP and the login fails since the new LTA device was not
allocated as LTA4961.   In this environment the LTA device cannot be predicted. 

Is there a way to ignore/disable the device/username pairing check in the UUCP
configuration?

(Quick answer for you:)

1. $ SHOW SYS/CLUS to an output file
2. Read the output file and figure it out.

(And a question.)

If you don't have any privs, then how did you get this PID without 
knowing the node name?  And what do you think you're going to
accomplish now that you have the node name?

It would be helpful to know what options you have considered and discarded and
perhaps why you discarded them.

My knee jerk response would be for you to get KERMIT.  I have a VAX/VMS Kermit, version 3.1.111 which is not recent but servicable.  You'll have to find a
KERMIT for the AS/400, I'll be very surprised if you can't find one.

Incidentally, I assume you know what KERMIT is, if not, drop me a line and I
will explain in more detail.

Best of luck.
