uudemon(4)
NAME
  uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative
  shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool directories,
  reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of
  the uuxqt and uusched daemons

SYNOPSIS
  These shell scripts reside in the following directory:

     /usr/lib/uucp

DESCRIPTION
  All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run
  automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove
  the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the
  /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file.

  uudemon.admin
	    This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues
	    the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails
	    the results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to
	    send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login
	    ID (uucpa) or root.

  uudemon.cleanu
	    This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and
	    /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup
	    command. The uucleanup command is run with the following
	    parameters:
	    -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1.

  uudemon.hour
	    This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background.

  uudemon.poll
	    This script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll
	    file.  The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the
	    uudemon.hour script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any
	    command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script.

FILES
  /usr/lib/uucp
	    Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and
	    uudemon.poll files.

  /var/spool/cron/crontabs
	    Contains the uucp file.
