I seem to be having a slight problem creating batches. From documentation, I should be able to have the line maps:comp.mail.maps:F:/usr/lib/news/maps/comp.mail.maps/Batch However, this batch is never created. All permissions are correct. It seems that since no distribution (such as world) is specified, none of the articles are placed in the batch. If I place "world" in the line, the articles will be placed in the batch IF they have a distribution of "world". If the newsgroup has as the first name one of the distributions (for instance "ne"), then nothing else is needed. From what I understand, I should not have to specify any distrubutions on this line. Any pointers? Should "comp" be added to /usr/lib/news/distributions? -- =========================================================================== Brian O'Neill - Boston University Corporate Education Center, Tyngsboro, MA UUCP: {decvax|ulowell}!bu-tyng!oneill Internet: oneill@bu-tyng.bu.edu (508) 649-9731 x14
