[I haven't seen anyone mention this publically yet, so I thought I'd warn people who haven't already noticed.] Some old messages from around the start of October seem to have leaked back out into ont.* and tor.*; I've spotted a couple Sept. 28th ones here today. Until this problem gets zapped, you might want to check the date on any messages that seem strangely familiar. The interesting bit of a sample path is utzoo!LAB!edhnic!becker; I'd suggest machine LAB is the culprit (unfortunately the local maps are highly out of date, so I can't check to see what LAB is). -- "I shall clasp my hands together and bow to the corners of the world."

Unfortunately, there is no site LAB connected to utzoo, so the maps would not help. Looks like one of our neighbors has fouled up somewhere. There has been some feed reshuffling; I've sent mail to the possible culprits. Alas, we don't keep logs quite long enough to resolve this by looking at them. -- The Earth is our mother. | Henry Spencer at U of Toronto Zoology Our nine months are up. |uunet!attcan!utzoo!henry henry@zoo.toronto.edu

I found out expire was expiring itself rather than expiring news after an nhistory file got bigger than the ulimit. I've bumped up the ulimit so censor shouldn't have any news older than 14 days anymore. I don't know if it was the culprit, but if it doesn't have any old news it should have a hard time sending it anywhere right? If the problem is still ongoing please let me know ASAP with any clues you can provide. I expect censor or something that talks to it was (is?) the guilty machine. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Hugh D.
