according to the UUCP admin tutorial i have, the time field consists
of a days-of-the-week AND times-of-day (range). this would seem to
suggest that the following are acceptable:
Any /* absolutely any time, any day */
Wk1800-0800 /* weekdays, 6pm to 8am, only */
MoWeFr0800-1800 /* fairly obvious by now */
while these are not acceptable:
1800-0800 /* any day, between 6pm and 8am */
Never /* this gets the effect i want, anyhow */
what is not clear (due to narrow examples and limited explication) is
if i can formulate time fields like these:
MoWeFr1000-1800TuThSa1200-2300 /* for whatever bizarre reason */
Wk1700-0800SaSu /* weekday nights and anytime weekends */
it is this latter formulation that i hope to use. is this possible?
