You can make the CALLER machine poll the HOST periodically using cron;
causing a poll every half-hour or so is usually quite acceptable for
directly connected machines.

crontab entry:
	08 * * * * /bin/su uucpadm -c "/usr/lib/uucp/uudemon.hr > /dev/null"

/usr/lib/uucp/uudemon.hr entry:
	rm -f /usr/spool/uucp/STST.${HOST}
	uucico -r1 -s${HOST}
