                     15:      _U_u_p_o_l_l is used to force a poll of a remote system. It queues
                     16:      a null job for the remote system and then invokes _u_u_c_i_c_o(8).
                     17: 
                     18:      The following options are available:
                     19: 
                     20:      --gg_g_r_a_d_e Only send jobs of grade _g_r_a_d_e or higher on this
                     21:             call.
                     22: 
                     23:      --nn      Queue the null job, but do not invoke _u_u_c_i_c_o.
                     24: 
                     25:      _U_u_p_o_l_l is usually run by _c_r_o_n(5) or by a user who wants to
                     26:      hurry a job along. A typical entry in _c_r_o_n_t_a_b could be:
                     27: 
                     28:          0    0,8,16    *    *    *    daemon    /usr/bin/uupoll ihnp4

                     30:      This will poll iihhnnpp44 at midnight, 0800, and 1600, and uuccbbvvaaxx
                     31:      at 0400, noon, and 2000.
                     32: 
                     33:      If the local machine is already running _u_u_c_i_c_o every hour
                     34:      and has a limited number of outgoing modems, a more elegant
                     35:      approach might be:
                     36: 
                     37:          0    0,8,16    *    *    *    daemon    /usr/bin/uupoll -n ihnp4
                     38:          0    4,12,20   *    *    *    daemon    /usr/bin/uupoll -n ucbvax
                     39:          5         *    *    *    *    daemon    /usr/lib/uucp/uucico -r1
                     40:      This will queue null jobs for the remote sites at the top of
                     41:      hour; they will be processed by _u_u_c_i_c_o when it runs five
                     42:      minutes later.
