UUWHO(1) Local UUWHO(1)NAMEuuwho - show map entry for a site
SYNOPSISuuwho [ -r ] [ -d dbmfile ] [ sitename ] ...
uuwho-i [ -d dbmfile ] mapfile ...
DESCRIPTION
Uuwho without the -i option extracts the map entry for each given site‐
name. The output provides labels for the site entry and includes all
the connection information as determined by the UUCP mapping project.
By default, uuwho extracts a map for the local site where the local
sitename is determined in a system dependent fashion.
-i If the option -i is given, then map info will be added to a
dbm(3X)-style database, rather than printing info about a site.
This information is then available for use by subsequent uuwho
commands.
-d dbmfile
This option specifies the basename for a dbm database is to be
used for this operation. If dbmfile begins with a ``/'' or
``.'', then it is taken to be the actual database name, other‐
wise it is assumed to be a file under the directory /etc/smail.
If the -d option is not given, then dbmfile defaults to
/etc/smail/uuwho.
-r If the option -r is given, then raw map entries are printed.
Without this option, recognizee #letter lines are listed in a
more symbolic form.
Each mapfile file is scanned for lines of the form:
#N sitename
#N sitename1, sitename2, ...
indicating that a new map is starting. In the second form, each site‐
name is considered to belong to the map that follows. Sitenames listed
on such lines become the sitename keywords which are available for sub‐
sequent requests.
A mapfile of - indicates that a map should be read from standard input.
Lines of the form:
file { filename }
indicate that the line following should be considered as if it were the
first line of the stated file.

FILES
dbmfile.pag, dbmfile.dir
The two parts of a dbm database, when the DBM library is
used to store the database. The .pag file contains the
keys and data associated with the database, while the
.dir file contains information that affects the hashing
algorithm used to determine which block contains a par‐
ticular value.
/etc/smail/uuwho
The basename for the default dbm database files. If the
DBM library is not used, then this is the name used to
store the default database, as a sorted file.
SEE ALSOpathto(1), dbm(3X), and pathalias(8).
BUGS
If a site has more than one map entry only the latter entry is shown.
The information available for a site may not be current.
Only sites marked via #N in the map database are listed. Normally,
sites listed under a domain will not be marked using #N. In this case
the domain, including the dot but excluding the machine name must be
used.
