NAME
uucico - transfer files for the uucp system
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lbin/uucp/uucico -r1 -s system [-x debug_level][-d spool_directory]
/usr/lbin/uucp/uucico [-x debug_level ][-d spool_directory]
DESCRIPTION
uucico scans the /var/spool/uucp directories for work files. If such files exist, a connection to a
remote system is attempted using the line protocol for the remote system specified in file
/etc/uucp/Systems. uucico then executes all requests for work and logs the results.
Options
uucico recognizes the following options:
-r1 Start uucico in the MASTER mode. The default isSLAVE mode.
-s system Do work only for the system specified by system. If there is no work for system on the
local spool directory, initiate a connection to system to determine if system has work
for the local system. This option must be used if
-r1 is specified.
-d spool_directory
Search directory spool_directory instead of the default spool directories (usually
/var/spool/uucp/*).
-x debug_level Use debugging option. debug_level is an integer in the range 1 through 9. More
debugging information is given for larger values of debug_level.
uucico is usually started by a local program such as cron, uucp,or uuxqt (see cron(1M), uucp(1), and
uuxqt(1M)). It when debugging should a user initiate
uucico directly.
When started by a local program, uucico is considered the MASTER and attempts a connection to a
remote system. If uucico is started by a remote system, it is considered to be in SLAVE
mode.
For the
uucico connection to a remote system to be successful, there must be an entry in the
/etc/passwd file on the remote system of the form:
uucp::5:5::/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/lbin/uucp/uucico
