UUSEND(1C)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	       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 sys-
     tem, 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.  Oth-
     erwise, 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 sys-
     tem 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 sys-
     tem along the line, the file will show up severly munged.
