NAME
uulocks - print status summary of UUCP locks
SYNOPSIS
uulocks [ -h ] [ -p [ -a psargs ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Uulocks searches the various directories which can contain
UUCP-style ``lock'' files. These files are used by UUCP
to prevent multiple connections to the same remote neigh-
bor, and also to control access to the outgoing modems.
On some systems, tip(1), kermit(1), and even getty(8) use
these same locks, thus permitting the outbound modems to
be shared between all modem applications.
If the -h option is given, no header will be printed for
the report. This is useful if you intend to post-process
the output with perl(1) or awk(1).
If the -p option is given, then a ps(1) command will be
executed for each process seen to have an active lock.
This can be followed by the -a option, which specifies the
output format to be given to ps(1). The default for newer
systems is -o user,tt,ucomm,state,start, and for older
systems it is simply u.
