I'm not sure how you'ld do that. uucp expects to talk to a uucico on the
other end, whether uucico directly or initiated by uucpd. If the dialin
uucp doesn't get a "Shere=<uuname>" it will die. 

If you can have your user go through a two part login, e.g., login to the
router and then login to the uucp machine, it would probably work. uucp
itself supports that kind of chat script. In other words, your users chat 
script would look something like this:

(At the router:)
	login:		<first username>
	password:	<first password>
			<command to get to uucp box>
(At the uucp box:)
	login:		<uucp username>
	password:	<uucp password>

The users uucico must get the acknowledgement from the sending (yours)
uucico or the negotiation will fail.

Let me know if you figure out how to make this happen.

Good luck.
