I just had to follow up the question! The adrenalin started
pumpin when I read it! :)
I had the same problem with 1.03 and still have it with 1.04.
I am usually sharp with checking permissions since I made my
self look silly with some questions with obvious answers in
the past. However, I have checked out all the permissions
I can think of and STILL the only one who can succeed in a
transfer is root. I have also found that even when I put
a file in uucppublic, it must be owned by uucp.uucp or
it won't go. Is there perhaps, some FAQ floating around
that would cover this? If not, does anyone have some
answers. (I am sure I have overlooked something)
Thanks.
