Go backward to The E Command.
Go up to UUCP Protocol Commands.
The H Command
.............
master: `H'
This is used by the master to hang up the connection. The slave
will respond with an `H' command response.
`HY'
The slave agrees to hang up the connection. In this case the
master sends another `HY' command. In some UUCP packages the
slave will then send a third `HY' command. At this point the
protocol is shut down, and the final handshake is begun.
`HN'
The slave does not agree to hang up. In this case the master
and the slave exchange roles. The next command will be sent
by the former slave, which is the new master. The roles may
be reversed several times during a single connection.
