uucico(1) -- file transport program for the uucp system
|
|
uucico is the file transport program for uucp work file transfers. Role numbers for the -r are the digit 1 for master mode or 0 for slave mode (default). The -r option should be specified as the digit 1 for master mode when uucico is started by a program or cron. uux and uucp both queue jobs that will be transferred by uucico. It is normally started by the scheduler, uusched, but can be started manually; this is done for debugging. For example, the shell uutry starts uucico with debugging turned... |

uucleanup(1) -- uucp spool directory clean-up
|
|
uucleanup scans the spool directories for old files and takes appropriate action to remove them in a useful way: Inform the requester of send/receive requests for systems that can not be reached. Return mail that cannot be delivered to the sender. Delete or execute rnews for rnews type files (depending on where the news originated--locally or remotely). Remove all other files. In addition, there is provision to warn users of requests that have been waiting for a given number of days (default 1).... |

uucp(1) -- UNIX-to-UNIX system copy
|
|
uucp uucp copies files named by the source-file arguments to the destination- file argument. A file name may be a path name on your machine, or may have the form: system-name!path-name where system-name is taken from a list of system names that uucp knows about. The system-name may also be a list of names such as system-name!system-name!...!system-name!path-name in which case an attempt is made to send the file via the specified route, to the destination. See WARNINGS and BUGS below for restrict... |

uucpd(1) -- UUCP over TCP/IP daemon
|
|
uucpd allows the use of incoming UUCP connections over TCP/IP. The UUCP/TCP server operates at the port indicated in the uucp service description; see services(4). The server is normally started by inetd(1M). Any of the UUCP protocols supported by uucico can be used, but 'e' and 't' are most common. uucpd relies primarily on the authentication mechanisms of uucico. However, it first obtains a username and password from the remote system, and checks them in much the same way as getty and logi... |
|
uuencode(1) -- encode/decode a binary file for transmission via mail
|
|
Uuencode and uudecode are used to transmit binary files over transmission mediums that do not support other than simple ASCII data. Uuencode reads the named source file, file, (or by default, the standard input) and writes an encoded version to the standard output. Normally it will be used as part of a pipeline, or with the output redirected to a file, similar to this: uuencode binarydatafile decoded_name | mail someuser In this case, when the file is decoded with uudecode after it is received, ... |
|
uugetty(1) -- set terminal type, modes, speed, and line discipline
|
|
uugetty is similar to getty(1M), but changes have been made to support using the line for uucico, cu, and ct; that is, the line can be used in both directions. The uugetty will allow users to login, but if the line is free, uucico, cu, or ct can use it for dialing out. The implementation depends on the fact that uucico, cu, and ct create lock files when devices are used. When the "open()" returns (or the first character is read when -r option is used), the status of the lock file indicates whe... |
|
uusched(1) -- the scheduler for the uucp file transport program
|
|
uusched is the uucp file transport scheduler. It is usually started by the uudemon.hour script that is started by cron(1M) from an entry in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp such as: 39 * * * * /etc/uucp/uudemon.hour The two options are for debugging purposes only: -x sched_level Output debugging messages from uusched. -u cico_level Passed as -x cico_level to uucico. The sched_level or cico_level is a number between 0 and 9. Larger numbers give more detailed information. Before starting to contact e... |
|
uustat(1) -- uucp status inquiry and job control
|
|
uustat will display the status of, or cancel, previously specified uucp commands, or provide general status on uucp connections to other systems. Only one of the following options can be specified with uustat per command execution: -a Output all jobs in queue. -m Report the status of accessibility of all machines. -p Execute a ``ps -flp'' for all the process-ids that are in the lock files. -q List the jobs queued for each machine. If a status file exists for the machine, its date, time and sta... |
|
uuto(1) -- public UNIX-to-UNIX system file copy
|
|
uuto sends source-files to destination. uuto uses the uucp(1C) facility to send files, while it allows the local system to control the file access. A source-file name is a path name on your machine. Destination has the form: system!user where system is taken from a list of system names that uucp knows about (see uuname). User is the login name of someone on the specified system. Two options are available: -p Copy the source file into the spool directory before transmission. -m Send mail to the s... |
|
uutry(1) -- try to contact remote system with debugging on
|
|
Uutry is a shell that is used to invoke uucico to call a remote site. Debugging is turned on (default is level 5); -x will override that value. The -r overrides the retry time in /var/spool/uucp/.status. The debugging output is put in file /tmp/system_name. A tail -f of the output is executed. The current INTR character, which is often , , or , will give control back to the terminal while the uucico continues to run, putting its output in /tmp/system_name.... |
|
uux(1) -- UNIX-to-UNIX system command execution
|
|
uux will gather zero or more files from various systems, execute a command on a specified system and then send standard output to a file on a specified system. NOTE: For security reasons, most installations limit the list of commands executable on behalf of an incoming request from uux, permitting only the receipt of mail (see mail(1)). (Remote execution permissions are defined in /etc/uucp/Permissions.) The command-string is made up of one or more arguments that look like a shell command line, ... |
|
uuxqt(1) -- execute remote command requests
|
|
uuxqt is the program that executes remote job requests from remote systems generated by the use of the uux command. (Mail uses uux for remote mail requests.) uuxqt searches the spool directories looking for X. files. For each X. file, uuxqt checks to see if all the required data files are available and accessible and file commands are permitted for the requesting system. The Permissions file is used to validate file accessibility and command execution permission. There are two environment variab... |

vacation(1) -- return ``I am not here'' mail indication
|
|
Vacation automatically returns a message to anyone who sends you mail. Typically, this message informs the sender that you are not available to read your mail. Initializing the Database When called with the -i flag, vacation initializes the ndbm(3B) database files .vacation.pag and .vacation.dir in your home directory. If a vacation database already exists, vacation will delete the old one and create a new (empty) one. vacation uses this database to keep track of the people to whom it has sent m... |

val(1) -- validate SCCS file
|
|
val determines if the specified file is an SCCS file meeting the characteristics specified by the optional argument list. Arguments to val may appear in any order. The arguments consist of keyletter arguments, which begin with a -, and named files. val has a special argument, -, which causes reading of the standard input until an end-of-file condition is detected. Each line read is independently processed as if it were a command line argument list. val generates diagnostic messages on the standa... |
|
vc(1) -- version control
|
|
The vc command copies lines from the standard input to the standard output under control of its arguments and control statements encountered in the standard input. In the process of performing the copy operation, user declared keywords may be replaced by their string value when they appear in plain text and/or control statements. The copying of lines from the standard input to the standard output is conditional, based on tests (in control statements) of keyword values specified in control statem... |
