uuxqt - Executes remote command requests
uuxqt [-ssystem] [-xdebug_level]
The uuxqt program executes specified commands on designated
remote systems.
Specifies the name of the remote system. Use this option
only when starting uuxqt manually. The remote system name
is supplied internally when uuxqt is started automatically.
Displays debugging information on the screen of
the local system; debug_level is a single digit between 0
and 9. The higher the number specified, the more detailed
the debugging information displayed.
When uux is entered by a user, the program creates the
necessary C.* (Command), D.* (Data), and X.* (Execute)
files and places them in the spooling directory on the
designated remote system. The uux command then calls the
uucico daemon which in turn, tries to contact the designated
system to deliver the files. When the files are
transferred, uuxqt executes the commands on the designated
system.
The uuxqt program searches the spool directories on the
designated system for the X.* (Execute) files whose names
indicate that they were sent from another system. The
command checks each X.* file for the following: All of
the required D.* (Data) files must be available and
accessible. File commands must be permitted for the
requesting system.
The uuxqt program can be executed manually by a user with
superuser privileges. This daemon is executed automatically
by the uudemon.hour shell script, which is started
periodically by cron.
