uutry, Uutry, uukick
PURPOSE
Contacts a remote system with debugging turned on.
SYNOPSIS
uutry [-x debug-level] [-r] system-name
Uutry [-x debug-level] [-r] system-name
Nutry [-x debug-level] [-r] system-name
DESCRIPTION
The uutry command contacts a specified system with debug-
ging turned on, thus providing a means of checking call
processing capabilities with debugging output. This
command invokes the uucico program, which in turn estab-
lishes 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 (Alt-Pause) to return to
the prompt.
The debugging information scrolls rapidly, so you may
want to direct that output to a file by issuing Uutry
rather than uutry.
The Uutry command (note the uppercase &ldq.U&rdq.) works
almost exactly like uutry, with one exception. In addi-
tion 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 exe-
cution. The debugging level is a single
digit between 0 and 9. Higher numbers
produce more detailed debugging informa-
tion, which is displayed on the screen
of the local system.
-r Overrides the retry time specified in
/usr/spool/uucp/.Status.
