- I'm trying to use uucp on my unix system to request a file from the
- fidosystem.
-
- For example, I can get a file from the unix system frackit:
-
- uucp frackit!/usr/tmp/testfile /usr/spool/uucppublic
-
- will request the file testfile in the directory /usr/tmp on system
- frackit to be copied to my /usr/spool/uucppublic directory.
-
- I want get the file t:/pd/uploads/270-211.arc from mdtnbbs (a fido system).
-
- When I type:
-
- uucp mdtnbbs!t:/pd/uploads/270-211.arc
-
- uucp things that I want
- /usr/spool/uucppublic/t:/pd/uploads/270-211.arc from mdtnbbs.
-
- Has anyone ever done this?
