Working on my #uucp connections between laptop and rpi. For some reason my Linux notebook just doesn't reach the rpi via uucp, and it doesn't make any sense at all.
spent entirely too much time reading documentation for #uucp to figure out if you can send requests to list files in another system's public folder
result: beats me
the problem is that this system is so ancient that nobody even writes about it anymore, the only thing you can find is basic documentation by companies that offer it in their systems (ibm and oracle for example) with no indication of how to actually use it.
what I want to find is someone else to connect my #uucp system to. unfortunately everybody that was interested in the technology seems to have given up.
