- ¢1mSYNOPSIS¢22m
- ¢1muucp¢22m [ options ] source¡file destination¡file
-
- ¢1muucp¢22m [ options ] source¡file... destination¡directory
-
- ¢1mDESCRIPTION¢22m
- The ¢4muucp¢24m command copies files between systems. Each ¢4mfile¢24m
- argument is either a pathname on the local machine or is
- of the form
-
- system!path
-
- which is interpreted as being on a remote system. In the
- first form, the contents of the first file are copied to
- the second. In the second form, each source file is
- copied into the destination directory.
-
- Any pathname that does not begin with / or ~ will be
- appended to the current directory; this resulting path may
- not exist on a remote system. A pathname beginning with a
- simple ~ starts at the UUCP public directory; a pathname
- beginning with ~name starts at the home directory of the
- named user. The ~ is interpreted on the appropriate sys¡
- tem. Note that some shells will interpret a simple ~ to
- the local home directory before ¢4muucp¢24m sees it; to avoid
- this the ~ must be quoted.
-
- Shell metacharacters ? * [ ] are interpreted on the appro¡
- priate system, assuming they are quoted to prevent the
- shell from interpreting them first.
-
- The copy does not take place immediately, but is queued up
- for the ¢4muucico¢24m (8) daemon; the daemon is started immedi¡
- ately unless the ¢1m-r¢22m switch is given. In any case, the
- next time the remote system is called the file(s) will be
- copied.
-
- ¢1mOPTIONS¢22m
- The following options may be given to ¢4muucp.¢24m
-
- ¢1m-c¢22m Do not copy local source files to the spool direc¡
- tory. If they are removed before being processed by
- the ¢4muucico¢24m (8) daemon, the copy will fail. The files
- must be readable by the ¢4muucico¢24m (8) daemon, and by the
- invoking user.
-
- ¢1m-C¢22m Copy local source files to the spool directory. This
- is the default.
-
- ¢1m-d¢22m Create all necessary directories when doing the copy.
- This is the default.

-
-
- ¢1m-f¢22m If any necessary directories do not exist for the
- destination path, abort the copy.
-
- ¢1m-g¢22m ¢1mgrade¢22m
- Set the grade of the file transfer command. Jobs of
- a higher grade are executed first. Grades run 0 ...
- 9 A ... Z a ... z from high to low.
-
- ¢1m-m¢22m Report completion or failure of the file transfer by
- ¢4mmail¢24m (1).
-
- ¢1m-n¢22m ¢1muser¢22m
- Report completion or failure of the file transfer by
- ¢4mmail¢24m (1) to the named user on the remote system.
-
- ¢1m-r¢22m Do not start ¢4muucico¢24m (8) daemon immediately; merely
- queue up the file transfer for later execution.
-
- ¢1m-j¢22m Print jobid on standard output. The job may be later
- cancelled by passing the jobid to the ¢1m-k¢22m switch of
- ¢4muustat¢24m (1). It is possible for some complex opera¡
- tions to produce more than one jobid, in which case
- each will be printed on a separate line. For example
- uucp sys1!~user1/file1 sys2!~user2/file2
- /usr/spool/uucppublic will generate two separate
- jobs, one for the system ¢4msys1¢24m and one for the system
- ¢4msys2.¢24m
-
- ¢1m-x¢22m ¢1mtype¢22m
- Turn on particular debugging types. The following
- types are recognized: abnormal, chat, handshake,
- uucp¡proto, proto, port, config, spooldir, execute,
- incoming, outgoing. Only abnormal, config, spooldir
- and execute are meaningful for ¢4muucp.¢24m
-
- Multiple types may be given, separated by commas, and
- the ¢1m-x¢22m option may appear multiple times. A number
- may also be given, which will turn on that many types
- from the foregoing list; for example, ¢1m-x¢22m ¢1m2¢22m is equiva¡
- lent to ¢1m-x¢22m ¢1mabnormal,chat.¢22m
-
- ¢1m-I¢22m ¢1mfile¢22m
- Set configuration file to use. This option may not
- be available, depending upon how ¢4muucp¢24m was compiled.
-
- ¢1mFILES¢22m
- The file names may be changed at compilation time or by
- the configuration file, so these are only approximations.
-
- /usr/lib/uucp/config ¡ Configuration file.
- /usr/spool/uucp ¡ UUCP spool directory.
- /usr/spool/uucp/Log ¡ UUCP log file.
- /usr/spool/uucppublic ¡ Default UUCP public directory.

- ¢1mBUGS¢22m
- Files can not be copied across multiple systems.
-
- Some of the options are dependent on the capabilities of
- the ¢4muucico¢24m (8) daemon on the remote system.
-
- The ¢4m-n¢24m and ¢4m-m¢24m switches do not work when transferring a
- file from one remote system to another.
-
- File modes are not preserved, except for the execute bit.
- The resulting file is owned by the uucp user.
