UUCP Support (x29uucpd)
x3 | Optional. This is the X.3 configuration set name for |
| UUCP file transfers. If this entry is used in |
| /etc/x25/x29hosts, the configuration set name with |
| its set of X.3 parameters must be specified in |
| /etc/x25/x3config. All legal X.3 parameters |
| contained in the x3config file are downloaded at |
| connection time. If there is more than one X.3 |
| configuration set with the same set name in |
| /etc/x25/x3config, the first one is used. |
| If there is no configuration set name in x29hosts or |
| matching X.3 configuration set name in x3config, the |
| default parameters are downloaded (see “X.3 |
| Parameter Descriptions” for information on X.3 |
| parameters). x29uucpd operates in line mode only. |
|
| Configuring System and Device Files for UUCP |
|
| The following example describes the configuration procedure for cu, uucp |
|
| and uucico transfers between two systems. In this example, the local |
|
| system is called “dave” and the remote system is called “bill.” The two |
|
| systems are configured to handle file transfers originating from the local |
|
| system (dave) and received by the remote system (bill). |
|
|
|
NOTE |
| Refer to the man pages for information on x25uucp device entry |
|
| parameters. |
|
| At the “dave” system: |
|
| |
Step | 1. Make sure that the directory /var/spool/uucp/LCK..x29 exists. If it | |
|
| doesn’t exist, create it. |
Step | 2. Configure the usr/lib/uucp/Systems file as follows: | |
|
| bill Any;5 dev_bill, f 19200 - ““ \r\d\r\d\r login: |
|
| |
|
| where: |
|
| bill – is the name of the destination system (7 characters maximum). |
