5: .SH SYNOPSIS
6: .B uucp
7: [ option ] ...
8: source-file ... destination-file
9: .PP
10: .B uulog
11: [ option ] ...
12: .SH DESCRIPTION
13: .I Uucp
14: copies files named by the source-file arguments
15: to the destination-file argument.
16: A file name may be a path name on your machine, or may
17: have the form
18: .IP
19: system-name!pathname
20: .LP
21: where `system-name' is taken from a list of system names
22: which
23: .I uucp
24: knows about.
25: Shell metacharacters ?*[] appearing in the pathname part
26: will be expanded on the appropriate system.
27: .PP
28: Pathnames may be one of
29: .IP (1)
30: a full pathname;
31: .IP (2)
32: a pathname preceded by
33: .IR ~user ;
34: where
35: .I user
36: is a userid on the specified system
37: and is replaced by that user's login directory;
38: .IP (3)
39: anything else is prefixed by the current directory.
40: .PP
41: If the result is an erroneous pathname for the remote system
42: the copy will fail.
43: If the destination-file is a directory, the last part of the
44: source-file name is used.
45: .ig
46: If a simple
47: .I ~user
48: destination is inaccessible to
49: .I uucp,
50: data is copied to a spool directory and the user
51: is notified by
52: .IR mail (1).
53: ..
54: .PP
55: .I Uucp
56: preserves execute permissions across the transmission
57: and gives 0666 read and write permissions (see
58: .IR chmod (2)).
59: .PP
60: The following options are interpreted by
61: .IR uucp .
62: .TP
63: .B \-d
64: Make all necessary directories for the file copy.
65: .TP
66: .B \-c
67: Use the source file when copying out rather than
68: copying the file to the spool directory.
69: .TP
70: .B \-m
71: Send mail to the requester when the copy is complete.
72: .PP
73: .I Uulog
74: maintains a summary log
75: of
76: .I uucp
77: and
78: .IR uux (1C)
79: transactions in the file
80: `/usr/spool/uucp/LOGFILE' by gathering
81: information from partial log files named `/usr/spool/uucp/LOG.*.?'.
82: It removes the partial log files.
83: .PP
84: The options cause
85: .I uulog
86: to print logging information:

88: .BI \-s sys
89: Print information about work involving system
90: .I sys.
91: .TP
92: .BI \-u user
93: Print information about work done for the specified
94: .I user.

103: .I Uucp Implementation Description
104: .SH WARNING
105: The domain of remotely accessible files can
106: (and for obvious security reasons, usually should)
107: be severely restricted.
108: You will very likely not be able to fetch files
109: by pathname;
110: ask a responsible person on the remote system to
111: send them to you.
112: For the same reasons you will probably not be able
113: to send files to arbitrary pathnames.
114: .SH BUGS
115: .br
116: All files received by
117: .I uucp
118: will be owned by uucp.
119: .br
120: The \-m option will only work sending files or receiving
121: a single file.
122: (Receiving multiple files specified by special shell
123: characters ?*[] will not activate
124: the \-m option.)
