Editing UUCP Databases

Before a machine can dial out over the PPP link, you must edit these files in its UUCP database:

• /etc/uucp/Devices

• /etc/uucp/Dialers

• /etc/uucp/Systems

You must edit these files for remote hosts serving as PPP dial-out machines. Additionally, you must edit these files on the dial-in server if it is to dial out to the remote hosts (a requirement for multipoint dial-in servers). Chapter 25, Overview of UUCP describes these files in detail.
