Question uucp on RH7.2


I am trying to find out about the availability of uucp daemon on RH7.2. DavidPhillips kindly confirmed to me last week, that yes, uucp exists in RH7.2. He suggested to do 'info uucp'. Well, I am stuck:

Yes, I am new to info (man was always OK). But, it should not be that hard, right? Well, I type 'info uucp' and get the info directory. The bottom line says: No menu item 'uucp' in node '(dir)Top'. I study the directions and with confidence type muucp. There is a temporary display of [Not complete] next to the Menu Item: uucp, then it disappears and nothing happens. Does it mean that there is no uucp topic in my RH7.2 distribution? I am encouraged by your 'yes' reply though. Now, I just have to find the docs for it.

A hint please?

I've found it:

Mount CD2 of the distribution pack, then do:

rpm -i /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/uucp-1.06.1-31.i386.rpm

This will install uucp. It still has to be configured, see 'info uucp'.
