UUCLEAN(1M) DOMAIN/IX Reference Manual (SYS5) UUCLEAN(1M)
NAME
uuclean - uucp spool directory clean-up
USAGE
/usr/lib/uucp/uuclean options
DESCRIPTION
Uuclean scans the spool directory for files with the speci-
fied prefix (see OPTIONS below) and deletes all files that
are older than a specified number of hours.
This program is typically started by cron(1M).
OPTIONS
-ddirectory cleans directory instead of the spool direc-
tory. (Note: if directory is not a valid spool
directory, it cannot contain ``work files'',
i.e., files whose names start with ``C.''.
These files have special meaning to uuclean
pertaining to uucp job statistics.)
-ppre scans for files with pre as the file prefix.
You may specify up to 10 -p arguments. A -p
without any pre following will cause all files
older than the specified time to be deleted.
-ntime deletes files whose age is more than time hours
if the prefix test is satisfied (the default
time is 72 hours).
-wfile finds files older than time hours, but does not
delete them. If the file argument is present,
a warning is placed in file. Otherwise, warn-
ings go to the standard output.
-ssys examines only those files destined for system
sys. Up to 10 -s arguments may be specified.
-mfile sends mail to the owner of the file when it is
deleted. If a file is specified, then a warn-
ing is also placed in file.
