On my Pyramid, it is set up like this in the L.sys file:

sitename Any TCP uucp sitename in:--in: nuucp password: hispassword

The site I send to is a Unisys system that doesn't have the /etc/uucpd
daemon, but does have telnet, so I use:

sitename Any TCP telnet sitename in:--in: nuucp password: hispassword
