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.  Prior
     to SR10, Domain/OS systems supplied two versions of uucico: uucico, which
     left your work in the queue and exited, and uucico.real, which performed
     the actual uucico function.

     In SR10 versions of uucp and thereafter, uucico.real does not exist, and
     all work is performed by the /usr/lib/uucp/uucico command.  In order to
     effect the transfer of uucp files, you must execute uucico manually on
     the node on which it resides (unless you issue the  uucp -R command,
     which invokes uucico automatically).

     All uucp accounts should have /usr/lib/uucp/uucico as the log-in shell in
     the registry, rather than /usr/lib/uucp/uucico.real.  The home directory
     should remain /usr/spool/uucppublic.

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).
