Some bozo at Futures.COM sent out some 450 create groups. Most of them were harmless, but 68 of them changed groups at my site to unmoderated and 29 recreated bogus groups I had removed. I cleaned this up here, but I guess it's time for me to some allowing automatic group creation and moteration changes. Would someone send me a version of $NEWSBIN/ctl/newgroup that does the right thing? Thanks... ->Spike -- "The World" - Public Access Unix - +1 617-739-9753 24hrs {3,12,24}00bps

I put: echo addgroup $1 $2 >> /usr/lib/news/new.groups exit 0 at the top. I then manually create the groups I think are appropriate (and have traffic). -- Jon Zeeff (NIC handle JZ) zeeff@b-tech.ann-arbor.mi.us
