   Hello Connor  (Or any other 386 Cnews users),

I am very interested in the Cnews package, but when I tried to get it 
running one time I have a whole boat load of trouble.  I would be interested
in any hints, patches, or ideas that anyone can offer that may help me get
Cnews running in place of Bnews on my system.  The system configuration 
here is a 33mhz 80386 system running under Interactive UNIX Release 2.2
