DESCRIPTION

15       uucico is the file transport program for uucp work file transfers.
16

OPTIONS

18       The following options are supported:
19
20       -f                    This  option  is  used  to  "force  execution" of
21                             uucico by ignoring the limit on the maximum  num‐
22                             ber  of  uucicos  defined in the /etc/uucp/Limits
23                             file.
24
25
26       -c type               The first field in the Devices file is the "Type"
27                             field.   The  -c option forces uucico to only use
28                             entries in the "Type" field that match  the  user
29                             specified type. The specified type is usually the
30                             name of a local area network.
31
32
33       -d spool-directory    This option specifies the directory  spool-direc‐
34                             tory  that  contains  the  uucp  work files to be
35                             transferred.   The  default  spool  directory  is
36                             /var/spool/uucp.
37
38
39       -i interface          This  option  defines  the  interface  used  with
40                             uucico. The interface only  affects  slave  mode.
41                             Known  interfaces  are UNIX (default), TLI (basic
42                             Transport Layer Interface), and  TLIS  (Transport
43                             Layer    Interface    with    Streams    modules,
44                             read/write).
45
46
47       -r role-number        The role-number 1 is used for master mode.  role-
48                             number  0 is used for slave mode (default).  When
49                             uucico is started by a program or cron, role-num‐
50                             ber 1 should be used for master mode.
51
52
53       -s system-name        The  -s option defines the remote system (system-
54                             name) that uucico will try  to  contact.   It  is
55                             required  when  the  role  is master; system-name
56                             must be defined in the Systems file.
57
58
59       -x debug-level        Both uux and uucp queue jobs that will be  trans‐
60                             ferred by uucico. These jobs are normally started
61                             by the uusched scheduler, for debugging purposes,
62                             and  can  be  started  manually. For example, the
63                             shell Uutry starts uucico with  debugging  turned
64                             on.  The debug-level is a number between 0 and 9.
65                             Higher  numbers  give  more   detailed  debugging
66                             information.
