uucp                         Command                         uucp




Ready files for transmission to other systems

uucp [ -bcCdm ] source1 ... sourceN dest

uucp copies files source1 through sourceN to the destination sys-
tem  dest.   Either  source  or  destination  files  can  contain
specifications for the remote system.

uucp recognizes the following options:

-c Instead of copying the source file to the spool directory, use
   the file itself.  This is a default.

-C Copy the source file to the spool directory.

-d Make directories on dest if they are necessary for copying the
   files.

-f Do not make intermediate directories for the file copy.

-ggrade
   grade is a single ASCII character indicating the importance of
   the files being transmitted: the lower the value of grade, the
   more important the files.

-m Send mail to the requester when the file is sent.

-nuser
   Notify user  on destination system  that file was  sent.  Note
   that user may contain a path:

           -nuser!site


-xdebug
   debug is a single-digit number, 0 to 9.  The higher the level,
   the more information yielded.

uucp                         Command                         uucp



        uucp george!/foo /tmp


The next example copies file /foo from system george into file or
directory /bar on system ivan:


        uucp george!/foo ivan!/bar


Note that  this assumes your  system can talk to  both george and
ivan and  that your  system has permission  to read file  /foo on
system george as well as to write file /bar on system ivan.

The next  example downloads files /foo and  /bar from remote sys-
tems ivan and george into directory /tmp on your system:


        uucp ivan!/foo george!/bar /tmp
