Can anyone explain to me under what circumstances "authorplaceholder" is inserted when dumping notes to news? The code is in newsdump.c, Rev1.7. For the time being, I have done this: #ifdef notdef if (strcmp (note -> n_id.sys, note -> n_auth.asystem) == 0) author = note -> n_auth.aname; /* ok for him */ else author = "authorplaceholder"; /* not local */ #else author = note -> n_auth.aname; #endif Thanks in advance, /rich $alz ---- Rich $alz {mit-eddie, ihnp4, wjh12, cca, cbosgd, seismo}!mirror!rs Mirror Systems 2067 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02140 Telephone: 617-661-0777 "Hi, mom!"
