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.

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.)
