[comp.unix.xenix] B-NEWS, lbgm problem

tony@ajfcal.UUCP (Tony Field) (05/11/89)

I have a problem with B-news under xenix 2.2.3/386.  I am attempting
to use "lbgm" to capture certain news groups.  My sys file contains:
-----
ajfcal:local,calgary,can,comp,gnu,news,rec,all,to.ajfcal::
SOURCES:can.uucp,comp.sources.unix,comp.sources.misc,
   comp.sources.bugs,to.ajfcal::/usr/lib/news/lbgm /usr/spool/lbgm/src tony
MAPSS:comp.mail.maps::/usr/lib/news/lbgm /usr/spool/lbgm/maps tony
calgary:calgary,ab,na,world,net,comp,news,can,soc,rec,misc,talk,gnu,to.calgary::
-----
If I postnews to any group that is supposed to be  captured by lbgm,
the capture does take place properly.

If I receive news from outside my system (i.e. from my news feed), 
lbgm captures nothing.

I am obviously doing something incorrect - however I cannot figure it
out no matter how often I RTFM.  The manual does imply that the dotted
groups are valid.  

Thankyou...
