After I applied patch #6, all incoming news from two of our three connected sites failed. Those sites are the two that send us news unbatched. The problem showed up with or without GENERICPATH and GENERICFROM defined. In /usr/lib/news/errlog, lines like this appeared: Apr 2 15:43 uucp inews: : Inbound news is garbled Apr 2 16:05 uucp inews: : Inbound news is garbled In /usr/lib/news/log, lines like this appeared: Apr 2 15:43 ulowell : Inbound news is garbled Apr 2 16:05 ulowell : Inbound news is garbled The headers on the incoming news looked fine. It's time-consuming to debug this kind of problem, so I would ask that anyone who has already had and solved this problem share their information. Thanks, -David.
