UUXQT(8)						      System Manager's Manual							  UUXQT(8)

NAME

       uuxqt - UUCP execution file interpreter

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/libexec/uuxqt [ -xdebug ]

DESCRIPTION

       Uuxqt interprets execution files created on a remote system via uux(1) and transferred to the local system via uucico(8).  When a user uses
       uux to request remote command execution, it is uuxqt that actually executes the command.  Normally, uuxqt is forked from uucico to  process
       queued execution files; for debugging, it may also be run manually by the UUCP administrator.

       Uuxqt runs in its own subdirectory, /usr/spool/uucp/XTMP.  It copies intermediate files to this directory when necessary.

FILES

       /etc/uucp/L.cmds 	     Remote command permissions list
       /etc/uucp/USERFILE	     Remote directory tree permissions list
       /usr/spool/uucp/LOGFILE	     UUCP system activity log
       /usr/spool/uucp/LCK/LCK.XQT   Uuxqt lock file
       /usr/spool/uucp/X./	     Incoming execution file directory
       /usr/spool/uucp/XTMP	     Uuxqt running directory

SEE ALSO

       uucp(1), uux(1), L.cmds(5), USERFILE(5), uucico(8)
