Description of Problem: When you use a pipe to another program as a port, it would be nice to have an address agument for the remote system, especially when you have several systems when the port definition only differs the the remote system name.. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): uucp-1.06.1-41 Actual Results: One port definition per system Expected Results: One port definition per method Additional Information: This allows a port definition like this port ssh type pipe command /usr/bin/ssh -a -e none -l uucp -x -o batchmode=yes -o stricthostkeychecking=no \H and then have several line in your sys file like system <name> address <FDQN> port ssh As another idea, port tcp could be replaced with this patch and netcat.
