Hi Dwight!

I think there are provisions for a 'permissions' or 'alias' file to allow you
one name on your system (no hyphen) but still have a hyphen in the remote name.

I've been working with Mark Griffith testing his 'uucp' port for the CoCo. Had
a similar problem.  One of the remote UNIX sites I work with uses hyphens both
in their name and the name they use for me.  I had to add a 'permissions' file
to alias my site name and their site name.

When you get UUCP working right, can you prepare a short manual on how to
set-up and use.  I can't read German and the info provided by TOP assumes a
good knowledge of UNIX UUCP.

Ed
