Help me please!

     I am trying to send a file that I have in my account on on machine to
another account on another machine.  The machines are linked via uucp.  There
is no ethernet link, so rcp won't work, and neither will ftp.

The filename is test.uucp.file
The destination is an accounty with the same id (jdia), reached via the 
following route: aplcen!umcp-cs!seismo!rochester!ur-tut!jdia
        
I have already tried the following commands:

uucp test.uucp.file aplcen!umcp-cs!seismo!rochester!ur-tut!~jdia\test.uucp.file
  
uusend test.uucp.file aplcen!umcp-cs!seismo!rochester!ur-tut!~jdia\test.uucp.file

the uucp command returns "can't get status for file test.uucp.file"
and uusend command returns "test.uucp.file: Permission denied"

BTW, test.uucp.file is in my own home directory and has read and write 
permissions granted to user, group, and other.

Also, is there any better method to use for sending files directly into an
account on another machine??


                          Your thanks in advance...

     uucp:  ...seismo!umcp-cs!aplcen!osiris!jdia

P.S. Sorry if I picked the wrong group for this, but I tried my best.
