[TUHS] UUCP: working systems, come and get them

[john@jfloren.net (John Floren)]

No luck with tip, and I don't see any net connections. My .ini file
contains this:

set dz lines=8
set dz 8b
attach dz line=0,Connect=simh.tuhs.org:5000
att dz -m 6666

and I can 'telnet simh.tuhs.org 5000' from the host.
