I'm trying to get Bnews 2.11 patchlevel 19 set up on a Sun 3/280 running SunOs 4.0.3. Whenever rnews is invoked by uux the rnews program hangs. Even worse the rnews process is in a disk wait state and I can't kill it without rebooting the system. This also happens when I invoke inews to create a new newsgroup (inews -C). When creating the software I used the localize.sun shell script and added only a couple of modifications. I changed the locations of SPOOLDIR, BINDIR, LIBDIR and of course added the organization name to MYORG as well. The thing compiled and installed without anything unusual happenning. What am I missing? Michael S. Lueke TauMetric Corporation, San Diego mikel@taumet.com
