9.7) UUPoll

UUPoll is a polling server. It supports the following features:

- controls the execution of a UUCICO child as the parent part

- checks for correct hostname and polling-time violation

- controls abortion of UUCICO due to a precalculated restriction time

- operates dependendly on status of last session

- operates dependendly on (specific) pending work

- controls dialup retries due to busy line or other UUCICO failures

- controls abortions due to user interupts

- can be disabled through a job control feature for crontab interventions

- can abort a startup due to or break an already running UUCICO process

- can give information about polling times and host status

- can setup your modem before start of a polling session

- can spawn UUCICO with additional options

- can spawn own user command after a (successful) session

- full UUCP logfile support similar to UUCICO

- can run under full runtime debugging with variable debug level
