Name
systems - Format of UUCP Systems file.
Description
The Systems file (/usr/lib/uucp/Systems) contains the
information needed by the uucico daemon to establish a
communication link to a remote computer. Each entry in the
file represents a computer that your computer can call. You
can configure the Systems file to prevent unauthorized
computers from logging in on your computer. More than one
entry may be present for a particular computer. These
additional entries represent alternative communication paths
which the computer tries in sequential order.
Each entry in the Systems file has the following format:
sitename schedule device speed phone login-script
sitename field contains the node name of the remote
computer.
schedule field is a string that indicates the day-
of-week and time-of-day when the remote
computer can be called.
device is the device type that should be used to
establish the communication link to the
remote computer.
speed indicates the transfer speed of the device
used in establishing the communication link.
phone provides the phone number of the remote
computer for automatic dialers. If you wish
to create a portable Systems file that can
be used at a number of sites where the
dialing prefixes differ, see the
dialcodes(F) man page.
login-scripcontains login information (also known as a
``chat script'').
