Well, since from what was written it seems that it would be better to do
the telnet method.

telnet from any host to the uucp host (white) to port 540 work fine.
So I created this entry in users file (just for testing):

xxx Password = "zzz"
User-Service-Type = Login-User,
Login-Host = white,
Login-Service = Telnet,
Login-Port = 540

Well, it didn't work. After some investigating I found that there is some
garbage given to the stdin when it comes from the Portmaster. Bellow is
the uucico's debuging log. I didn't enter an userename just CR to the
login prompt. The same garbage happens everytime.

Any ideas?
