I'm running News B2.11 patch level 18. My /usr/lib/news/users file contains my logname twice, while at least one other news user's logname does not appear at all. Should I care? (If it matters, readnews, vnews, rn, and gnu emacs news reading mode have all been used on this system) -- ------------------- bret@codonics.com uunet!codonics!bret Bret Orsburn

Interesting question. I installed News on my then-new system about one & a half years ago - this file received a couple of entries then, but never thereafter. I'm running B News 2.11 p.l.14 on an AT&T 3B1; what is this file used for in this version? -- ^^ Bruce Becker Toronto, Ont. w \**/ Internet: bdb@becker.UUCP, bruce@gpu.utcs.toronto.edu `/v/-e BitNet: BECKER@HUMBER.BITNET _/ >_ "The Rounder I Go, the Faster I Get" - Tenderfeed for QuodUseNet
