We've recently installed 2.10.2, and have met with Mixed Results and didn't like her. Here's a edited list of the messages we constantly recieve, in no particular order: Message 1: inews: Unknown newsgroup removed 'net.micro.att' inews: Newsgroups in active, but not in sys ===== If I have net.all in my sys file, shouldn't that take care of 'net.micro.att' too? This message occurs with other groups as well. Message 2: inews: News system locked up ===== Occurs often after messages 1 and 3. Message 3: inews: Cannot install article as /news/spool/junk/117 inews: Link into /news/spool/junk/117 failed, errno 23, check dir permissions. ===== We have directory permissions 777 on all directories. Because of the way our system handles SUID, we have to run inews as SUID root. After inserting some dubugging code, we believe the message to be the result of a race condition, but have yet to prove it. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!! -- David Hinnant SCI Systems, Inc. {decvax, akgua}!mcnc!rti-sel!scirtp!dfh
