I am running B News @ patchlevel 19 I am running NNTP @ patchlevel 10 I am running rn @ patchlevel 54 When one of my feeds connects to me to transfer news he is able to post maybe one article (at the most) then I close my nntp connection. I have not a clue as to why this would be happening... My other feeds are not experiencing this problem... The only message I get is for the one article and then news telling me the article is in active but not sys. (in my log) Any help greatly appreciated... thanks, --- Lator, Don't ask me what I think of you... Cuz I might not tell you what you want me to. Jeffrey B.

Attempts to post from gnus on the same host of from other news software on other hosts, e.g., TheNews on my Macintosh, results in the nntp server dying. Sometimes the post is successful. Othertimes the post does not take. I would be interested in hearing any responses to this inquiry. Dave Umbaugh, CSE Dept.

This probably isn't your problem, but I've seen the symptoms you describe when one machine has trailers turned on and the other doesn't. Another reason to turn trailers off. -- Paul DuBois dubois@primate.wisc.edu

After posting this article my feed conntacted me after contacting the NNTP guru Stan Barber, and he stated that this would be fixed in the next patch 11 I guess... but he gave a quick fix... in spawn.c comment out closelog(); recompile and reinstall... I did this and it seems to work fine... --- Lator, Don't ask me what I think of you... Cuz I might not tell you what you want me to. Jeffrey B.
