I won't go into detail as I'm still not 100% where it       went       wrong, but I think the problem may have been with the way that Debian packed       it.              All I did, was change the "uucp@.service" file to start a different service       .              Instead of running /usr/sbin/in.uucpd, I changed it to run       /usr/sbin/uncico -l. That fixed my problem, which was that nothing was logging       in right.              I'll have to look into it a bit more to see WHY the original life by Debian       didn't work, as that was supposed to use PAM for Authentication. When I know a       bit more, I might submit a bug report and blog about it.                             --- MultiMail/Linux v0.52        * Origin: MS & RD BBS bbsweb.mozysswamp.org (3:633/384)       SEEN-BY: 18/200 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 114 206 275 300 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 550 616 664 700 705 266/512 280/464 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/267 280 281 384       SEEN-BY: 633/410 418 420 509 2744 712/848 770/1 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 633/384 280 229/426           |
