DESCRIPTION

The uusched daemon schedules work for the uucp file transport program, uucico. It schedules the transfer of files that are queued in the /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName directory.  The scheduling daemon first randomizes the work and then starts the uucico daemon, which transfers the files.  The uusched daemon is usually started by the uudemon.hour shell procedure, which is run periodically by the cron daemon.  The uusched daemon can also be started from the command line for debugging purposes. 

EXAMPLES

To start the uusched daemon from the command line, enter:

/usr/lib/uucp/uusched &
