uuwho(1)
NAME
uuwho - show map entry for a site
SYNOPSIS
uuwho [ -r ] [ -d dbmfile ] [ sitename ] ...
uuwho -i [ -d dbmfile ] mapfile ...
DESCRIPTION
Uuwho without the -i option extracts the map entry for each given
sitename. The output provides labels for the site entry and includes all
the connection information as determined by the UUCP mapping project. By
default, uuwho extracts a map for the local site where the local sitename
is determined in a system dependent fashion.
-i If the option -i is given, then map info will be added to a dbm(3X)-
style database, rather than printing info about a site. This
information is then available for use by subsequent uuwho commands.
-d dbmfile
This option specifies the basename for a dbm database is to be used
for this operation. If dbmfile begins with a ``/'' or ``.'', then
it is taken to be the actual database name, otherwise it is assumed
to be a file under the directory /usr/lib/smail. If the -d option is
not given, then dbmfile defaults to /usr/lib/smail/uuwho.
-r If the option -r is given, then raw map entries are printed.
Without this option, recognized #letter lines are listed in a more
symbolic form.
Each mapfile file is scanned for lines of the form:
#N sitename
#N sitename1, sitename2, ...
indicating that a new map is starting. In the second form, each sitename
is considered to belong to the map that follows. Sitenames listed on
such lines become the sitename keywords which are available for
subsequent requests.
A mapfile of - indicates that a map should be read from standard input.
Lines of the form:
file { filename }
indicate that the line following should be considered as if it were the
first line of the stated file.
EXAMPLES
uuwho walldrug hoptoad
uuwho -d other_dbm
find /usr/spool/uumaps -name '[ud].*' -print |
while read file; do
echo "file { $file }"
cat $file
done | uuwho -i -
FILES
dbmfile.pag, dbmfile.dir
The two parts of a dbm database, when the DBM library
is used to store the database. The .pag file contains
the keys and data associated with the database, while
the .dir file contains information that affects the
hashing algorithm used to determine which block
contains a particular value.
/usr/lib/smail/uuwho
The basename for the default dbm database files. If
the DBM library is not used, then this is the name used
to store the default database, as a sorted file.
SEE ALSO
pathto(1), dbm(3X), and pathalias(8).
BUGS
If a site has more than one map entry only the latter entry is shown.
The information available for a site may not be current.
Only sites marked via #N in the map database are listed. Normally, sites
listed under a domain will not be marked using #N. In this case the
domain, including the dot but excluding the machine name must be used.
