UUCP commands and daemons

z/OS UNIX System Services Planning
GA32-0884-00

UUCP provides the uucp command, which schedules files to be exchanged with other UUCP systems, and the uux command, which schedules commands to be executed by other UUCP systems. However, the uucp and uux commands do not cause any files to be exchanged or commands to be executed. For this, UUCP provides two daemons called uucico and uuxqt which establish communication sessions, transfer data, and execute commands according to the requests scheduled by uucp and uux.

The commands associated with UUCP are:
uucc
Compile UUCP configuration files
uucp
Copy files between remote systems
uulog
Display log information about UUCP events
uuname
Display a list of UUCP systems
uupick
Manage files sent to you via uuto
uustat
Display the status of pending UUCP transfers
uuto
Copy files to users on remote systems
uux
Request command execution on remote systems
The daemons associated with UUCP are:
cron
Starts the uucico daemon according to the schedule specified
inetd
This TCP/IP daemon starts the uucpd daemon
uucico
Processes uucp and uux file transfer requests
uucpd
Invokes the uucico daemon for TCP/IP connections from remote uucp systems
uuxqt
Run commands from other systems
