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  execu-
                           tion"  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 net-
                           work.


     -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 Tran-
                           sport  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  sys-
                           tem (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.
