You need a line in /etc/uucp/sys: commands /bin/rmail /bin/uucp /usr/lib/newsbin/input/rnews There should be a line like this for each system with which you communicate. If a command is not listed, the remote system is not allowed to execute it. -- Jay On Sat, 24 Jan 1998, Dean Hollister wrote: > >Hiyall, > >I'm getting an error that uucp and ramptops rmail and rnews requests are >failing because they do not have permission to run rnews and rmail.
