I use uucp over a pseudo-tty allocated by ssh with the i protocol.
Especially I call several peers via this method.
With the attached patch I can use one single port definition like
port ssh
type pipe
command /usr/bin/ssh <lots of ssh options> \H
instead of one port definitioon per peer.The sys definitions then all
look like
system uucp-peer
address uucppeer.example.com
port ssh
Besides, the built-in tcp port could be replaced with this patch and
netcat, or the tty port with chat.
I thought it might be of general interest.
