SYNTAX
uustat [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
The uustat command either displays the status of or cancels previously specified uucp commands or provides general status on uucp connections to other systems.
OPTIONS
-mmch
Report the status of accessibility of machine mch. If mch is specified as all, then the status of all machines known to the local uucp are provided.
-kjobnKill the uucp request whose job number is jobn. The killed uucp request must belong to the person issuing the uustat command unless that person has superuser privilege.
-chourRemove the status entries which are older than hour hours. This option can only be executed by the user uucp or the superuser.
-uuserReport the status of all uucp requests issued by user.
-ssysReport the status of all uucp requests which are destined for remote system sys.
-ohourReport the status of all uucp requests which are older than hour hours.
-yhourReport the status of all uucp requests which are younger than hour hours.
-jallReport the status of all uucp requests or the specified job (request) number.
-vReport uucp status verbosely. If this option is not specified, a status code is printed with each uucp request.
When no options are given, uustat outputs the status of all uucp requests issued by the current user. Note that only one of the options -j, -m, -k, -c, can be used with the other options. For example,
uustat -usteve -slimbo -y63 -v
This command will print the verbose status of all uucp jobs that were issued by user steve destined for system limbo within the last 63 hours. The format of each job status entry is:
job# user destination spool_time status_time status
The status may be either an octal number or a verbose description. The octal code corresponds to the following description:
OCTALSTATUS
00001Copy failed for unknown reasons.
00002Permission to access local file is denied.
00004Permission to access remote file is denied.
00010Bad uucp command is generated.
00020Remote system cannot create temporary file.
00040Cannot copy to remote directory.
00100Cannot copy to local directory.
00200Local system cannot create temporary file.
00400Cannot execute uucp.
01000Copy succeeded.
02000Copy finished, job deleted.
04000Job is queued.
The format for the machine accessibility status entries is:
system status_time last_success_time status
The system is the system in question.
The status_time is the time the last status entry was made.
The last_success_time is the last time a connection was successfully made to this system. A conversation could be ended prematurely after a successful connection.
The status is a self-explanatory description of the machine status.
In the current implementation uux requests are not recorded in the uustat logging files. This implies that mail and news requests are not recorded by uustat.
