I am having trouble getting the following type of command to work.

		uux '!cmd < system!/tmp/file'

First of all it tries to poll itself (oliveb from oliveb).  Then when
I manually poll "system" the uucp log file shows the error ACCESS DENIED.

What makes this interesting is that a uucp of the same system!/tmp/file
will succeed.  I have played with the USERFILE permissions but even
generous permissions don't seem to help.

Is the permission being denied on the local or the remote system?
