UUCP(1N)                COMMAND REFERENCE                UUCP(1N)



NAME
     uucp - UNIX system to UNIX system copy

SYNOPSIS
     uucp [ -c ][ -d ][ -m ] source-filename...destination-
     filename

DESCRIPTION
     Uucp copies files named by the source-filename arguments to
     the destination-filename argument.  A filename may be a
     pathname on your machine, or may have the form:

          system-name!pathname

     where system-name is taken from a list of system names which
     uucp knows about.  Shell metacharacters ?, *, [, and ]
     appearing in the pathname part will be expanded on the
     appropriate system.

     Pathnames may be one of:

     (1)
        A full pathname;

     (2)
        A pathname preceded by ~user where user is a user ID on
        the specified system and is replaced by that user's login
        directory;

     (3)
        Anything else is prefixed by the current directory.

     If the result is an erroneous pathname for the remote system
     the copy will fail.  If the destination-filename is a
     directory, the last part of the source-filename is used.

     If a simple ~user destination is inaccessible to uucp, data
     is copied to a spool directory and the user is notified by
     mail(1mh).

     Uucp preserves execute permissions across the transmission
     and gives 0666 read and write permissions (see chmod(2)).

          WARNING:
                  The domain of remotely accessible files can
                  (and for obvious security reasons, usually
                  should) be severely restricted.  You will very
                  likely not be able to fetch files by pathname;
                  ask a responsible person on the remote system
                  to send them to you.  For the same reasons you
                  will probably not be able to send files to
                  arbitrary pathnames.

UUCP(1N)                COMMAND REFERENCE                UUCP(1N)



OPTIONS
     -c Use the source file when copying out rather than copying
        the file to the spool directory.

     -d Make all necessary directories for the file copy.

     -m Send mail to the requester when the copy is complete.

FILES
     /usr/spool/uucp
                  Spool directory

     /usr/lib/uucp/*
                  Other data and program files

RETURN VALUE
     [0]              No errors.

     [nonzero]        Errors occured.

CAVEATS
     All files received by uucp will be owned by uucp.

     The -m option will only work sending files or receiving a
     single file.  (Receiving multiple files specified by special
     shell characters ?, *, [, and ] will not activate the -m
     option.)
