I'm working on installing news on a Sun-3, SunOS 4.0.3. It seems to be mostly working, but there are two problems. The first is that we get the following error messages on an almost regular basis. The second, undoubtedly related to the first, is that we aren't getting all the news that there is. (I've checked a couple other sites to find this out). Otherwise, reading, batching, posting and unbatching seem to be working just fine. Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this behaviour and/or how to fix it? Thanks.

Wait, my common/version.c says: char nntp_version[] = "1.5.11 (31 January 1991)"; So is there a 1.5.12 version? Or was the Feb. 10 version an unofficial release? I'm confused. -- Eiji Hirai @ Mathematics Dept., Swarthmore College, Swarthmore, PA 19081-1397 hirai@cs.swarthmore.edu hirai@swarthmr.bitnet uunet!hirai%cs.swarthmore.edu Copyright 1991 by Eiji Hirai.

So, for 1.5.11, I did a prerelease on January 31st and a real release on February 10th. If you download from the official ftp archives, you will only get the Feb 10th release. If you apply the patches, you only get the Feb 10th release. The Jan 31st release should be deleted. -- Stan internet: sob@bcm.tmc.edu Director, Networking Olan uucp: rutgers!bcm!sob and Systems Support Barber Opinions expressed are only mine.
