UUCLEANUP(1M)       RISC/os Reference Manual        UUCLEANUP(1M)



NAME
     uucleanup - uucp spool directory clean-up

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/uucp/uucleanup [ -Ctime ] [ [ -Dtime ] [ -Wtime ] [
     -Xtime ]
           [ -mstring ] [ -otime ] [ -ssystem ]

DESCRIPTION
     uucleanup will scan the spool directories for old files and
     take appropriate action to remove them in a useful way:

          Inform the requestor of send/receive requests for sys-
          tems that can not be reached.

          Return mail, which cannot be delivered, to the sender.

          Delete or execute rnews for rnews type files (depending
          on where the news originated--locally or remotely).

          Remove all other files.

     In addition, there is provision to warn users of requests
     that have been waiting for a given number of days (default
     1).  Note that uucleanup will process as if all option times
     were specified to the default values unless time is specifi-
     cally set.

OPTIONS
     The following options are available.

     -Ctime    Any C. files greater or equal to time days old
               will be removed with appropriate information to
               the requestor.  (default 7 days)

     -Dtime    Any D. files greater or equal to time days old
               will be removed.  An attempt will be made to
               deliver mail messages and execute rnews when
               appropriate.  (default 7 days)

     -Wtime    Any C. files equal to time days old will cause a
               mail message to be sent to the requestor warning
               about the delay in contacting the remote.  The
               message includes the JOBID, and in the case of
               mail, the mail message.  The administrator may
               include a message line telling whom to call to
               check the problem (-m option).  (default 1 day)

     -Xtime    Any X. files greater or equal to time days old
               will be removed.  The D. files are probably not
               present (if they were, the X. could get executed).
               If there are D. files, they will be taken care of

               by D. processing.  (default 2 days)

     -mstring  This line will be included in the warning message
               generated by the -W option.

     -otime    Other files whose age is more than time days will
               be deleted.  The default line is "See your local
               administrator to locate the problem".  (default 2
               days)

     -ssystem  Execute for system spool directory only.

     -xdebug_level
               The -x debug level is a single digit between 0 and
               9; higher numbers give more detailed debugging
               information.  (If uucleanup was compiled with
               -DSMALL, no debugging output will be available.)

     This program is typically started by the shell
     uudemon.cleanup, which should be started by cron(1M).

INTERNATIONAL FUNCTIONALITY
     For the -mstring option, characters from supplementary code
     sets can be used for the warning message contained in
     string.

FILES
     /usr/lib/uucp       directory with commands used by
                         uucleanup internally
