The intermediate machine has to allow "uucp" (and maybe "uux"?) in
a COMMANDS entry of /usr/lib/uucp/Permissions.

/usr/lib/uucp/Permissions is a source of great confusion to lots
of administrators.  Anyone know of a good reference?  I use the
System V Administrator Guide (*not* Manual...there's more information
about stuff like this in the Guide).
