uutot.awk—Report UUCP Statistics

Contributed by Roger A. Cornelius

Here’s something I wrote in nawk in response to all the C versions of the same thing which were posted to alt.sources awhile back. Basically, it summarizes statistics of uucp connections (connect time, throughput, files transmitted, etc.). It only supports HDB-style log files, but will show statistics on a site-by-site, or on an overall (all sites), basis. [It also works with /usr/spool/uucp/SYSLOG.]

I use a shell wrapper which calls “awk -f” to run this, but it’s not necessary. Usage information is in the header. (Sorry about the lack of comments.)
