If you're using my modified anne.jones as distributed with the extension set I posted a little while ago, there's a pretty serious bug in it as it's written. It will reject any attempts to post any articles with explicit Expires: or Date: headers. The following patch will remedy the situation. Thanks to Matthias Urlichs (urlichs@smurf.sub.org) for bringing this to my attention. I've run it through a slew of tests & it acts properly now. After you apply this, type 'make anne.stub' and copy anne.stub to your $NEWSBIN/inject directory, replacing the one that's there. -- cut -- *** ../distrib/anne.jones.c Thu Apr 11 14:45:12 1991 --- anne.jones.c Thu Apr 11 14:41:13 1991 *************** *** 283,292 **** switch (i) { case DATEPOS: ! header[found[DATEPOS]] = fix_date(header[found[DATEPOS]]); break; case EXPIREPOS: ! header[found[EXPIREPOS]] = fix_expire(header[found[EXPIREPOS]]); break; } } --- 283,294 ---- switch (i) { case DATEPOS: ! header[found[DATEPOS]] = ! fix_date(strchr(header[found[DATEPOS]], ' ')); break; case EXPIREPOS: ! header[found[EXPIREPOS]] = ! fix_expire(strchr(header[found[EXPIREPOS]], ' ')); break; } } -- cut -- -- Brendan Kehoe - Widener Sun Network Manager - brendan@cs.widener.edu Widener University in Chester, PA A Bloody Sun-Dec War Zone
