Has anyone built News 2.11.19 (V2.11, patchlevel 19 B news) under Ultrix 4.0? Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I used the localize.v7 file as a base, and added the required lines for NNTP to it as described in localize.nntp. I want my machine to run full news software, receiving news via NNTP, and also feeding two other machines. Except for some problems with NNTP (which I've temporarily taped together), this is all working okay now, except that I'm on old versions of the software (NNTP 1.5 and News 2.11.14). I'd like to go ahead and build 2.11.19 news and 1.5.10 NNTP if I can, but I can't even REBUILD my existing versions! An example of the kind of things I'm encountering is that I can't compile the file rfuncs2.c because it doesn't like having fileno(fp) on the lhs of an assignment operator. (The offending lines are 314 and 316 in this file, if you're interested. 314 is something like "fileno(fp) = -1;" and 316 is "fileno(fp) = fno;") Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with Ultrix 4.0??? Thanks in advance.
