UUCICO(1M) INTERACTIVE UNIX System UUCICO(1M)
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. Role numbers for the -r are the digit 1 for mas-
ter mode or 0 for slave mode (default). The -r option
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 will be transferred by uucico. It is nor-
mally started by the scheduler, uuschedf1, but can be
started manually; this is done for debugging. For example,
the shell Uutry starts uucico with debugging turned on. A
single digit must be used for the -x option with higher
numbers for more debugging.
The -i option defines the interface used with uucico. This
interface only affects slave mode. Known interfaces are
UNIX (default), TLI (basic Transport Layer Interface), and
TLIS (Transport Layer Interface with Streams modules,
read/write).
The -d option is used to specify the directory
(spool_directory) that contains the work files to be
transferred. The default spool directory is
/usr/spool/uucp. The -s option defines the system
(system_name) that uucico will try to contact. The
system_name must be defined in the Systems file.
