+     SUMMARY   
+
+          Queue up a file transfer request.  
+
+     DESCRIPTION   
+
+          The uucp command can be used to initiate file transfers to and 
+          from the remote system.  The remote system usually won't let you 
+          put a file just anywhere...  usually there is a 
+          /usr/spool/uucppublic directory to which anyone is allowed to 
+          write files, though.  So to transfer your startup file to your 
+          immediate UUCP neighbor "sandstorm", for example: 
+
+              uucp /dd/startup "sandstorm!/usr/spool/uucppublic/startup" 
+
+          and to read it back: 
+
+              uucp "sandstorm!/usr/spool/uucppublic/startup" /dd/startup2 
+
+          This would just queue up a job to do the transfer; uucico would 
+          do the actual work.  This means that people who know what they're 
+          doing can send you files (and read your files) remotely, so you 
+          might want to be security conscious and NOT run uucico from your 
+          root account (user 0).  Also, make sure the permissions on your 
+          files are set such that whatever account you run uucico under can 
+          ONLY do things on your system that you feel like permitting.  
+
+          The directory /DD/USR/SPOOL/UUCPPUBLIC is your equivalent of the 
+          standard UNIX /usr/spool/uucppublic directory.  If someone wants 
+          to transfer a file to you, you can tell them that would be a good 
+          directory to put it into.  Make sure anyone can write in that 
+          directory, so that anyone wanting to transfer a file to your 
+          system will be sure to have a place to put it.  
+
+          If you know enough about the way the network's connected, and the 
+          various machines involved are configured in a way that allows it, 
+          you can transfer files between machines that aren't immediate 
+          neighbors, like this: 
+
+          uucp /dd/file "sandstorm!gigsys!tatooine!/usr/spool/uucppublic/file"
+
+          The above command would cause the file "file" to be transferred 
+          from your hard disk to the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory on 
+          system "tatooine", travelling there by ways of intermediate 
+          systems "sandstorm" and "gigsys".  
+
