Doing the suggested su notes < /usr/spool/notes/.utilities/newsoutput.sh where newsoutput.sh is /usr/spool/notes/.utilities/newsoutput "net.*" does not work. Apparently newsoutput gets run, and the appropriate confirmations appear in /usr/spool/notes/.utilities/net.log, but the new notes/responses are never posted to the appropriate newsgroup. I find that notes must login and run newsoutput in order for the new notes/responses to be properly posted. Does anyone else have this problem? Also, newsoutput always seems to produce a "Duplicate response handed back by news", even though the note/responses gets posted and appears in the appropriate newsgroup. Weird? Stuart
