[news.software.nntp] Problem xferring to Masscomp machine

bin@rhesus.primate.wisc.edu (Brain in Neutral) (10/28/88)

I'm having problems nntpxmit-ing news to a Masscomp machine.  (We're
both running nntp 1.5, I'm on a VAX running Ultrix 1.2).  This problem
occurs when the target machine has already seen some of the articles
I have (e.g., it's gotten them from another host).  After this machine
reaches the 36th rejection, when my system asks about the next article,
it sends back

	436 Cannot create temporary file.

and my nntpxmit quits.  The problem is not with the number of IHAVE's
sent, or the number of articles accepted, it's the number of rejections,
and always 36.  (There can be several articles accepted in between the
rejections, but as soon as 36 is reached, that's it.)

Anyone seen this before?
