Corrupt(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual Corrupt(4)
NAME
Corrupt, .Corrupt - Contains copies of files that could not be processed
SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/.Corrupt/*
DESCRIPTION
The /usr/spool/uucp/.Corrupt directory contains copies of files that could not be processed by the uucp program. For example, if a file is
not in the correct form for transfer, the uucp program places a copy of that file in the .Corrupt directory for later handling by the sys-
tem manager.
This directory is rarely used. The files in it are removed periodically by the uudemon.cleanu(4) command, a shell procedure.
