NAME

       uucico - file transport program for the uucp system

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/uucp/uucico [-f] [-c type] [-d spool-directory]
	    [-i interface] [-r role-number] [-s system-name]
	    [-x debug-level]

DESCRIPTION

       uucico is the file transport program for uucp work file transfers.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -f		     This  option is used to "force execution" of uucico by ignoring the limit on the maximum number of uucicos defined in
			     the /etc/uucp/Limits file.

       -c type		     The first field in the Devices file is the "Type" field.  The -c option forces uucico to  only  use  entries  in  the
			     "Type" field that match the user specified type. The specified type is usually the name of a local area network.

       -d spool-directory    This option specifies the directory spool-directory that contains the uucp work files to be transferred.  The default
			     spool directory is /var/spool/uucp.

       -i interface	     This option defines the interface used with uucico. The interface only affects slave mode.  Known interfaces are UNIX
			     (default),  TLI  (basic  Transport  Layer	Interface),  and  TLIS	(Transport  Layer  Interface with Streams modules,
			     read/write).

       -r role-number	     The role-number 1 is used for master mode. role-number 0 is used for slave mode (default).  When uucico is started by
			     a program or cron, role-number 1 should be used for master mode.

       -s system-name	     The  -s option defines the remote system (system-name) that uucico will try to contact.  It is required when the role
			     is master; system-name must be defined in the Systems file.

       -x debug-level	     Both uux and uucp queue jobs that will be transferred by uucico. These jobs  are  normally  started  by  the  uusched
			     scheduler,  for  debugging  purposes,  and  can  be started manually. For example, the shell Uutry starts uucico with
			     debugging turned on. The debug-level is a number between 0 and 9.	 Higher  numbers  give	more   detailed  debugging
			     information.
