I am trying to get a program which uucp will permit other sites to
execute.  This program happens to be a csh script.  I have 4.2bsd with
the uucp that comes with the 4.2 distribution basically unchanged.
Does uucp make a special test and not permit any shell scripts to be
executed?  About the only thing that I notice is that no path is being
setup.  If I execute it locally with a loop around test, then it sets
up the path and exports it before executing the command.  If another
site executes it (or attempts to) the path is never setup.  Any ideas?
