	In the Systems file, simply specify the times allowed to call
out.  An example is below:

uunet Any0400-0650,Any1200-1215,Any1700-1715 ACU 1200 P5551212 (login script deleted)

This says that the system can call out in three different time periods:

	1.	Any day between 0400 and 0650 
	2.	Any day between 1200 and 1215
	3.	Any day between 1700 and 1715 (5 pm to 5:15 pm)

Any work which is sent to uucp is held until these times.  You will need
to have cron start up uudemon.hour periodictly as the following examply
shows:

8,38 * * * * /bin/su uucp -c "/usr/lib/uucp/uudemon.hour" > /dev/null

This starts uudemon.hour up every hour at 8 minutes past, and at 38 minutes
past the hour.

To force the polling you will need the following entry:

0 * * * * /bin/su uucp -c "/usr/lib/uucp/uudemon.poll" > /dev/null

This starts uudemon.poll up every hour on the hour.



Sorry if this answered more than you were looking for.  I figured that
if anybody else had questions I might be able to answer them in advance.
