-.Sh NAME
-.Nm uupoll
-.Nd poll a remote
-.Tn UUCP
-site
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Nm uupoll
-.Op Fl g Ns Ar grade
-.Op Fl n
-.Ar system
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Nm Uupoll
-is used to force a poll of a remote system. It queues a null job for the
-remote system and then invokes
-.Xr uucico 8 .
-.Pp
-The following options are available:
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Fl g Ns Ar grade
-Only send jobs of grade
-.Ar grade
-or higher on this call.
-.It Fl n
-Queue the null job, but do not invoke
-.Xr uucico .
-.El
-.Pp
-.Nm Uupoll
-is usually run by
-.Xr cron 5
-or by a user who wants to hurry a job along. A typical entry in
-.Em crontab
-could be:
-.Bd -literal
-0 0,8,16 * * * daemon /usr/bin/uupoll ihnp4
-0 4,12,20 * * * daemon /usr/bin/uupoll ucbvax
-.Ed
-.Pp
-This will poll
-.Em ihnp4
-at midnight, 0800, and 1600, and
-.Em ucbvax
-at 0400, noon, and 2000.
-.Pp
-If the local machine is already running
-.Xr uucico
-every
-hour and has a limited number of outgoing modems, a more elegant approach
-might be:
-.Bd -literal
-0 0,8,16 * * * daemon /usr/bin/uupoll -n ihnp4
-0 4,12,20 * * * daemon /usr/bin/uupoll -n ucbvax
-5 * * * * daemon /usr/lib/uucp/uucico -r1
-.Ed
-.Pp
-This will queue null jobs for the remote sites at the top of hour; they
-will be processed by
-.Xr uucico
-when it runs five minutes later.
