- The following polling script will run uuxqt once every five minutes
- as long as uusched is active.
-
- :
- /usr/lib/uucp/uusched &
- uupid=$!
- while kill -0 $uupid >/dev/null 2>&1 ; do
- /usr/lib/uucp/uuxqt &
- sleep 300
- done
-
- Either this can be run from cron, or incorporated into whatever you
- already run from cron to do your polling. I don't know if this is
- what you are asking for...but I'm not quite exactly what you are asking
- for.
