UUCICO(8C) BSD UUCICO(8C)
NAME
uucico - file transport program for the uucp system
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/uucp/uucico [ -r role_number ] [ -x debug_level ] [ -i interface
]
[ -d spool_directory ] -s system_name
DESCRIPTION
uucico is the file transport program for uucp work file transfers.
Domain/OS systems supply two versions of uucico: uucico, which, when
called simply exits, leaving your work in the queue, and uucico.real,
which, as its name implies, is the "real" uucico program. Normally,
uucico.real is invoked locally by cron, or when a remote host initiates a
uucp connection with the Domain/OS system in slave mode. Work queued by
you is processed when uucico.real is invoked by either method. The only
way to directly invoke uucico.real is to run it on the node on which it
is installed.
OPTIONS
-rrole_number
role_numbers for the master mode and slave mode. One for
master mode or zero for slave mode (default). -r 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 are to
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 on.
-xdebug_level
You must use a single digit for this option, with higher
numbers for more debugging.
-iinterface
Defines the interface used with uucico. This interface only
affects slave mode. Known interfaces are the UNIX System
(default), TLI (basic Transport Layer Interface), and TLIS
(Transport Layer Interface with Streams modules, read/write).
