NAME

uuq − examine or manipulate the uucp queue

SYNOPSIS

uuq [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

Uuq is used to examine (and possibly delete) entries in the uucp queue. 

When listing jobs, uuq uses a format reminiscent of ls.  For the long format, information for each job listed includes

• job number

• number of files to transfer

• user who spooled the job

• number of bytes to send

• type of command requested (S for sending files, R for receiving files, X for remote uucp)

• file or command desired. 

OPTIONS

−bbaud Uses baud to compute the transfer time instead of the default 1200 baud. 

−djobno Deletes job number jobno (as obtained from a previous uuq command) from the uucp queue.  Only the UUCP Administrator is permitted to delete jobs. 

−h Prints only the summary lines for each system.  Summary lines list system name, number of jobs for the system, and total number of bytes to send. 

−l Specifies a long format listing.  The default is to list only the job numbers sorted across the page. 

−rsdir Looks for files in the spooling directory sdir instead of the default directory. 

−ssystem Limits output to jobs for systems whose system names begin with system. 

−uuser Limits output to jobs for users whose login names begin with user. 

FILES

/usr/spool/uucp/Default spool directory
/usr/spool/uucp/C./C.∗Control files
/usr/spool/uucp/Dhostname./D.∗Outgoing data files
/usr/spool/uucp/X./X.∗Outgoing execution files

SEE ALSO

uucp(1C), uux(1C), uulog(1C), uusnap(8C)

BUGS

No information is available on work requested by the remote machine. 

The user who requests a remote uucp command is unknown. 

Uuq −l can be horrendously slow.
