NAME
Status, .Status - Contains information about the status of the uucp program contacts with remote systems SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/.Status DESCRIPTION
The /usr/spool/uucp/.Status directory contains information about the status of the uucp program contacts with remote systems. For each remote system contacted, the uucp program creates a file in the .Status directory called SystemName, where the SystemName file is named for the remote system being contacted. In the .Status/SystemName file, the uucp program stores the following information: Time of the last call in seconds Status of the last call Number of retries Retry time, in seconds, of the next call The times given in the .Status/SystemName file are expressed as seconds elapsed since midnight of January 1, 1970 (the output of a time system call). Thus, the retry time is in the form of the number of seconds that must have expired since midnight of January 1, 1970 before the system can retry. To make this entry in the .Status/SystemName file, uucp performs a time system call, adds 600 seconds, and places the resulting number of seconds in the file. If the last call was unsuccessful, the uucico daemon will wait until the time specified by the retry time before attempting to contact the system again. RELATED INFORMATION
Daemons: uucico(8) Functions: time(3) delim off Status(4)

NAME
Directories - Contains queued requests for file transfers and command executions on remote systems SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/SystemName DESCRIPTION
The /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName directories are the uucp program spooling directories on the local system. The uucp program creates a Sys- temName directory for each system listed in the /usr/adm/uucp/Systems file, including the local system. Each SystemName directory contains queued requests issued by local users for file transfers to remote systems and for command executions on remote systems. The uucp program uses several types of administrative files to transfer data between systems. These files are stored in the SystemName directories. They are: Contain directions for the uucico daemon concerning file transfers. Contain data to be sent to remote systems by the uucico daemon. Contain instructions for running commands on remote systems. Contain data files after their transfer to the remote system until the uucp program can deliver them to their final destinations (usually the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory). RELATED INFORMATION
Daemons: uucico(8), uusched(8), uuxqt Commands: uucp(1), uux(1) delim off Directories(4)
