UUCP (Unix to unix copy) not working
I have a problem using uucp. I have Ubuntu 10.4 and i installed the 'uucp' package.

In my LAN there are a desktop pc, a laptop, and the router
the desktop local ip is: 192.168.0.2
the laptop local ip is: 192.168.0.4

Here are the /etc/uucp/config and the /etc/uucp/sys i used on the desktop.
Code:
# /etc/uucp/sys
protocol et

protocol-parameter i timeout 5
protocol-parameter i packet-size 4095
protocol-parameter i remote-packet-size 4095
protocol-parameter t packet-size 4095
protocol-parameter t remote-packet-size 4095

#
# Our remote uucp system.
#
system uucplaptop 
address 192.168.0.4
port TCP
call-login loginname
call-password passwd
# I used the login name and the password of a user

Code:
# /etc/uucp/config
nodename uucpdesktop

I used the same configuration file on the laptop, but i changed the ip address, the login name and the password, and the system name.

I created a test file on the desktop and i tried retrieving it from the laptop with
Code:
uucp uucpdekstop\!/home/user/TEST.FILE uucplaptop\!/var/spool/uucppublic/

I get no error message but the test file isn't in the laptop.

Can you help me?
Thank you for any reply.

PS: i deactivated the firewall on both pcs.
