−s system_name

AVAILABILITY

This command is available with the uucp software  installation  option.   Refer to OS/MP Release Notes for information on how to install optional software. 

DESCRIPTION

uucico is the file transport program for UUCP work file transfers.  uux(1C) and uucp(1C) both queue jobs that will be transferred by uucico.  It is normally started by the scheduler, uusched (8C), but can be started manually; this is done for debugging.  For example, the script Uutry starts uucico with debugging turned on. 

OPTIONS

−r role_number
Specify the role that uucico should perform.  role_number is the digit 1 for master mode or 0 for slave mode (default).  Master mode should be specified when uucico is started by a program or cron(8). 

−x debug_level
Produce debugging output on the standard output. debug_level is a number between 0 and 9; higher numbers give more detailed information.  5, 7, and 9 are good numbers to try; they give increasing amounts of detail. 

−i interface
Define the interface used with uucico.  This interface only affects slave mode.  Known interfaces are UNIX (default).
