I found the problem.  I won't go into detail as I'm still not 100% where it
went
wrong, but I think the problem may have been with the way that Debian packed
it.

All I did, was change the "uucp@.service" file to start a different service
.

Instead of running /usr/sbin/in.uucpd, I changed it to run
/usr/sbin/uncico -l.  That fixed my problem, which was that nothing was logging
in right.

I'll have to look into it a bit more to see WHY the original life by Debian
didn't work, as that was supposed to use PAM for Authentication.  When I know a
bit more, I might submit a bug report and blog about it.
