.TH UUCP 1C .UC .SH NAME uucp, uulog \- unix to unix copy .SH SYNOPSIS .B uucp [ option ] ... source-file ... destination-file .PP .B uulog [ option ] ... .SH DESCRIPTION .I Uucp copies files named by the source-file arguments to the destination-file argument. A file name may be a path name on your machine, or may have the form .IP system-name!pathname .LP where `system-name' is taken from a list of system names which .I uucp knows about. Shell metacharacters ?*[] appearing in the pathname part will be expanded on the appropriate system. .PP Pathnames may be one of .IP (1) a full pathname; .IP (2) a pathname preceded by .IR ~user ; where .I user is a userid on the specified system and is replaced by that user's login directory; .IP (3) anything else is prefixed by the current directory. .PP If the result is an erroneous pathname for the remote system the copy will fail. If the destination-file is a directory, the last part of the source-file name is used. .ig If a simple .I ~user destination is inaccessible to .I uucp, data is copied to a spool directory and the user is notified by .IR mail (1). .. .PP .I Uucp preserves execute permissions across the transmission and gives 0666 read and write permissions (see .IR chmod (2)). .PP The following options are interpreted by .IR uucp . .TP .B \-\^d Make all necessary directories for the file copy. .TP .B \-\^c Use the source file when copying out rather than copying the file to the spool directory. .TP .B \-\^m Send mail to the requester when the copy is complete. .PP .I Uulog maintains a summary log of .I uucp and .IR uux (1C) transactions in the file `/usr/spool/uucp/LOGFILE' by gathering information from partial log files named `/usr/spool/uucp/LOG.*.?'. It removes the partial log files. .PP The options cause .I uulog to print logging information: .TP .BI \-\^s sys Print information about work involving system .I sys. .TP .BI \-\^u user Print information about work done for the specified .I user. .SH FILES .ta 2i /usr/spool/uucp spool directory .br /usr/lib/uucp/* other data and program files .SH SEE ALSO Mail(1), mail(1), uux(1C) .br D. A. Nowitz, .I Uucp Implementation Description .SH WARNING The domain of remotely accessible files can (and for obvious security reasons, usually should) be severely restricted. You will very likely not be able to fetch files by pathname; ask a responsible person on the remote system to send them to you. For the same reasons you will probably not be able to send files to arbitrary pathnames. .SH BUGS .br All files received by .I uucp will be owned by uucp. .br The \-m option will only work sending files or receiving a single file. (Receiving multiple files specified by special shell characters ?*[] will not activate the \-m option.)
