uutry(1)uutry(1)NAMEuutry - Tries to contact remote system with debugging on
SYNOPSISuutry [system]
DESCRIPTION
The uutry command is a shell that invokes uucico to call a remote site,
system. Debugging is turned on (level 9). The debugging output is put
into the file /tmp/system. A tail -f on this file is executed so that
the debugging output is printed on the terminal during execution. Typ‐
ing the Interrupt key sequence gives control back to the terminal while
uucico continues to run, putting its output in /tmp/system.
The uutry command overrides any retry period for a remote system and
will attempt to establish a connection immediately.
The output file, /tmp/system is overwritten each time uutry is executed
to system.

maintains its temporary work files. Contains lock files that prevent
multiple uses of devices and multiple calls to systems. Called the
public directory on a given system, UUCP uses it for sending and
receiving information; ~uucp is a brief way of specifying it. A file
