16: _U_u_x will gather zero or more files from various systems,
17: execute a command on a specified system and then send stan-
18: dard output to a file on a specified system.
19:
20: The _c_o_m_m_a_n_d-_s_t_r_i_n_g is made up of one or more arguments that
21: look like a Shell command line, except that the command and
22: file names may be prefixed by _s_y_s_t_e_m-_n_a_m_e!!. A null _s_y_s_t_e_m-
23: _n_a_m_e is interpreted as the local system.
24:
25: File names may be one of
26:
27: (1) a full path name;
28:
29: (2) a path name preceded by ~~_u_s_e_r where _u_s_e_r is a login
30: name on the specified system and is replaced by that
31: user's login directory;
32:
33: (3) a path name prefixed by ~~;; where ~~ is expanded to
34: the system's public directory (usually
35: /var/spool/uucppublic);
36:
37: (4) a partial pathname, which is prefixed by the
38: current directory.
39:
40: As an example, the command
41:
42: uux "!diff usg!/usr/dan/file1 pwba!/a4/dan/file2 >
43: !~/dan/file.diff"
44:
45: will get the ffiillee11 and ffiillee22 files from the ``usg'' and
46: ``pwba'' machines, execute a _d_i_f_f(1) command and put the
47: results in ffiillee..ddiiffff in the local /var/spool/uucppublic/dan/
48: directory.
49:
50: Any special shell characters, such as <<>>;;||, should be quoted
51: either by quoting the entire _c_o_m_m_a_n_d-_s_t_r_i_n_g, or quoting the
52: special characters as individual arguments.
53:
54: _U_u_x will attempt to get all files to the execution system.
55: For files that are output files, the file name must be
56: escaped using parentheses. For example, the command
57:
58: uux a!wc b!/usr/file1 \(c!/usr/file2 \)

73:
74: get //uussrr//ffiillee11 from system ``b'' and send it to system
75: ``a'', perform a _w_c command on that file and send the result
76: of the _w_c command to system ``c''.
77:
78: _U_u_x will notify you by mail if the requested command on the
79: remote system was disallowed. This notification can be
80: turned off by the --nn option.
81:
82: The following _o_p_t_i_o_n_s are interpreted by _u_u_x:
83:
84: -- The standard input to _u_u_x is made the standard input to
85: the _c_o_m_m_a_n_d-_s_t_r_i_n_g.
86:
87: --aa_n_a_m_e
88: Use _n_a_m_e as the user identification replacing the ini-
89: tiator user-id.
90:
91: --cc Do not copy local file to the spool directory for
92: transfer to the remote machine (this is the default).
93:
94: --CC Force the copy of local files to the spool directory
95: for transfer.
96:
97: --gg_g_r_a_d_e
98: _G_r_a_d_e is a single letter/number, from 00 to 99, AA to ZZ,
99: or aa to zz; 00 is the highest, and zz is the lowest grade.
100: The default is AA; by comparison _u_u_c_p(1) defaults to nn
101: and mail is usually sent at grade CC. Lower grades
102: should be specified for high-volume jobs, such as news.
103:
104: --ll Try and make a link from the original file to the spool
105: directory. If the link cannot be made, copy the file.
106:
107: --nn Do not notify the user when the command completes.
108:
109: --pp Same as -: The standard input to _u_u_x is made the stan-
110: dard input to the _c_o_m_m_a_n_d-_s_t_r_i_n_g.
111:
112: --rr Do not start the file transfer, just queue the job.
113:
114: --xx_d_e_b_u_g
115: Produce debugging output on stdout. The debug is a
116: number between 0 and 9; higher numbers give more
117: detailed information. Debugging is permitted only for
118: privileged users (specifically, those with read access
119: to _L._s_y_s(5).
120:
121: --zz Notify the user only if the command fails.
122:
123: --LL Start up _u_u_c_i_c_o with the --LL flag. This will force calls
124: to be made to local sites only (see _u_u_c_i_c_o(8)).

148: For security reasons, many installations will limit the list
149: of commands executable on behalf of an incoming request from
150: _u_u_x. Many sites will permit little more than the receipt of
151: mail (see _m_a_i_l(1)) via _u_u_x.

154: Only the first command of a shell pipeline may have a
155: _s_y_s_t_e_m-_n_a_m_e!!. All other commands are executed on the system
156: of the first command.
157:
158: The use of the shell metacharacter ** will probably not do
159: what you want it to do.
160:
161: The shell tokens <<<< and >>>> are not implemented.
162:
163: When invoking _u_u_x from _c_s_h(1), the `!' character must be
164: prefixed by the `\' escape to inhibit _c_s_h's history mechan-
165: ism. (Quotes are not sufficient.)
