No, they used to have UUCP, and decided it was a security risk, and
no longer offer it at all.  You can get into what I guess you would
call pseudo-unix, but not full UUCP.  You only have access to a few
unix commands, and unfortunately the ones that I need have been
taken away (or access cut would be more accurate).
