Using bourne shell and standard Unix :-) commands, list all processes 
associated with uucp (containing uu if you will) in -f format without
listing the ps process that is running, and using only 1 form of the grep
(egrep, fgrep, etc) command. i.e.:

ps -ef |grep "uu"                  is wrong, list ps process.
ps -ef |grep "uu" | grep -v ps     us wrong, uses 2 grep processes.

No, it's not hard.

Send mail, I'll post correct answers later.
