Foreign(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual Foreign(4)
NAME
Foreign - Logs contact attempts from unknown systems
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/uucp/.Admin/Foreign
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/lib/uucp/.Admin/Foreign file lists access attempts by unknown systems. The /usr/lib/uucp/remote.unknown shell script appends an
entry to the Foreign file each time a remote computer that is not listed in the local /usr/lib/uucp/Systems file attempts to communicate
with that local system.
Someone with superuser authority can customize entries in the Foreign file to fit the needs of a specific site by modifying the
remote.unknown shell script.
EXAMPLES
The following is a sample entry in the Foreign file:
Wed Sep 20 20:38:22 CDT 1989: call from the system merlin
System merlin, which is not listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Systems file, attempted to log in on September 20 at 10:38 p.m., but the uucp pro-
gram did not allow the unknown system to log in.
FILES

file Contains the Foreign file and other uucp administrative files
