uucheck(8)
NAME
  uucheck - Checks for files and directories required by uucp

SYNOPSIS
  uucheck [-v] [-x debug_level]

OPTIONS
  -v  Displays a detailed explanation of how the uucp program interprets the
      permissions file.

  -x debug_level
      Displays debugging information. The valid range for debug_level is 0 to
      9. The higher the number, the more detailed the final report.

DESCRIPTION
  The uucheck command verifies the presence of the files and directories
  required by the uucp program.	 In addition to checking for the presence of
  files required by uucp, the uucheck command also checks for some errors in
  the /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions file.

  The uucheck command does not check for correct file and directory modes or
  for errors, such as duplicate login or machine names, in the
  /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions file.

  When the uucp program is installed, uucheck verifies that the directories,
  programs, and support files required to operate the networking facility are
  present. The command is executed automatically, as one of the first steps
  in the installation process, before the required uucp directories,
  programs, and files are actually installed.

  Issue the uucheck command from the command line after installing uucp,
  configuring uucp for your site, or making changes in part of the uucp
  program (for example, after changing the /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions file).

  You can issue the uucheck command from the command line only if you have
  superuser authority.

EXAMPLES
   1.  To find out how the uucp program interprets the
       /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions file, enter:

	    # uucheck -v

       The -v flag instructs the uucheck command to verify that the uucp
       files exist and displays a detailed explanation of how the uucp
       programs interpret the permissions file.

   2.  To set the debug level to 8, enter:

	    # uucheck -x 8
