Assuming that you are using the SCO Xenix 2.3.1+ version of HDB, all you
have to do is to put an entry in the Permissions file for OTHER, and to
make sure that "anonuucp" (or whatever you want to use for the anonymous
UUCP login) is in the /etc/passwd file with no password, and finally
that a working subdirectory for "anonuucp" is set up in /usr/spool/uucp.
