DESCRIPTION

The uutry command contacts a specified system with debugging turned on, thus
providing a means of checking call processing capabilities with debugging
output.  This command invokes the uucico program, which in turn establishes the
actual connection to the remote system.

The debugging output (information about the progress of uucico in establishing
the connection, performing the remote login, and so on) is scrolled on the
screen of the local system.  Once the system has finished displaying this
information, use INTERRUPT (Ctrl-D) to return to the prompt.  Because the
debugging information scrolls rapidly, you may want to direct that output to a
file by issuing Uutry rather than uutry.  nutry works like Uutry except that it
does not look for uucico in the current directory.

The Uutry command (note the uppercase "U") works almost exactly like uutry,
with one exception.  In addition to displaying the debugging output on the
screen, Uutry also directs this information to a file named /tmp/system_name.
Again, when the last of the output has been displayed, use INTERRUPT to return
to the prompt.

Note:  You can also press INTERRUPT while the system is scrolling the output
       generated by Uutry.  This returns you to the prompt, while the uucico
       program continues to place the debugging information in
       /tmp/system_name.  Use the pg command to examine this file.

The uukick command also works just like the uutry command.  The only difference
between the two commands is that uukick takes only the -xdebug_level flag.  You
cannot override the retry time with the -rsystem_name flag.

FLAGS

-xdebug_level      Used in debugging to override the default level of 5, and
                   produce a detailed output of the program execution.  The
                   debugging level is a single digit between 0 and 9.  Higher
                   numbers produce more detailed debugging information, which
                   is displayed on the screen of the local system.

-r                 Overrides the retry time specified in
                   /usr/spool/uucp/.Status.

FILES

/etc/locks/LCK*                 Prevents multiple use of device.
/tmp/system_name                Temporary data file.
/usr/adm/uucp/Devices           Information about available devices.
/usr/adm/uucp/Dialcodes         Dialing code abbreviations.
/usr/adm/uucp/Dialers           Initial handshaking on a link.
/usr/adm/uucp/Maxuuscheds       Limits scheduled jobs.
/usr/adm/uucp/Maxuuxgts         Limits remote command executions.
/usr/adm/uucp/Permissions       Access permission codes.
/usr/adm/uucp/Systems           Accessible remote systems.
/usr/spool/uucp/*               Spooling directory.
/usr/spool/uucppublic/*         Public directory.
