uuxqt(1Mbnu)

uuxqt -- execute remote command requests

Synopsis

/usr/lib/uucp/uuxqt [options]

Description

The uuxqt command executes remote job requests from remote systems generated by the use of the uux(1bnu) command (mail(1) uses uux for remote mail requests).

Options

The uuxqt command takes the following options:

-s system: Specifies the remote system name.
-x debug_level: debug_level is a number from 0 to 9. Higher numbers give more detailed debugging information.

Files

/etc/uucp/Permissions
/etc/uucp/Limits
/etc/uucp/Permissions
/var/spool/uucp/*
/var/spool/locks/*

Usage

uuxqt searches the spool directories looking for execution requests. For each request, uuxqt checks to see if all the required data files are available, accessible, and the requested commands are permitted for the requesting system. The Permissions file is used to validate file accessibility and command execution permission.

There are two environment variables that are set before the uuxqt command is executed:

UU_MACHINE is the machine that sent the previous job
UU_USER is the user that sent the job

These variables can be used in writing commands that remote systems can execute to provide information, auditing, or restrictions.
