UUSEND(1C)                                                          UUSEND(1C)


NAME
       uusend - send a file to a remote host

SYNOPSIS
       uusend [ -m mode ] sourcefile sys1!sys2!..!remotefile

DESCRIPTION
       Uusend sends a file to a given location on a remote system.  The system
       need not be directly connected to the local  system,  but  a  chain  of
       uucp(1) links needs to connect the two systems.

       If  the  -m option is specified, the mode of the file on the remote end
       will be taken from the octal number given.  Otherwise, the mode of  the
       input file will be used.

       The  sourcefile  can be ‘‘-’’, meaning to use the standard input.  Both
       of these options are primarily intended for internal use of uusend.

       The remotefile can include the ~userid syntax.

DIAGNOSTICS
       If anything goes wrong any further away than the first system down  the
       line, you will never hear about it.

SEE ALSO
       uux(1), uucp(1), uuencode(1)

BUGS
       This command should not exist, since uucp should handle it.

       All  systems  along the line must have the uusend command available and
       allow remote execution of it.

       Some uucp systems have a bug where binary files cannot be the input  to
       a  uux  command.   If this bug exists in any system along the line, the
       file will show up severly munged.
