DESCRIPTION
uucico is the file transport program for
uucp work file transfers.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-f This option is used to "force execution" of
uucico by ignoring the limit on the maximum
number of uucicos defined in the
/etc/uucp/Limits file.
-c type The first field in the
Devices file is the
"Type" field. The
-c option forces
uucico to
only use entries in the "Type" field that match
the user specified
type. The specified
type is
usually the name of a local area network.
-d spool-directory This option specifies the directory
spool- directory that contains the
uucp work files to
be transferred. The default spool directory is
/var/spool/uucp.
-i interface This option defines the
interface used with
uucico. The interface only affects slave mode.
Known interfaces are UNIX (default), TLI (basic
Transport Layer Interface), and TLIS (Transport
Layer Interface with Streams modules,
read/write).
-r role-number The
role-number 1 is used for master mode.
role-number 0 is used for slave mode (default).
When
uucico is started by a program or
cron,
role-number 1 should be used for master mode.
-s system-name The
-s option defines the remote system
(
system-name) that
uucico will try to contact.
It is required when the role is master;
system- name must be defined in the
Systems file.
-x debug-level Both
uux and
uucp queue jobs that will be
transferred by
uucico. These jobs are normally
started by the
uusched scheduler, for debugging
purposes, and can be started manually. For
example, the shell
Uutry starts
uucico with
debugging turned on. The
debug-level is a
number between
0 and
9. Higher numbers give
more detailed debugging information.
