You can transfer through a multihop path with the co-operation of only every other site. So, if your (and intervening) UUCPs don't support multihop transfers, and you need to get from here to there via the path here!a!b!c!there, all you need is help from someone on b. You type uucp file a!file Your friend b!user types uucp a!file file and, at some later time, uucp file c!file and your recipient can then type uucp c!file file Dave Sherman The Law Society of Upper Canada Toronto -- here!a!b!c!there!lsuc!dave
