Hi all,

Well, after much waiting and wringing of hands I finally got version 5.8a
up and running (we finally got vms 5.1!).  However, due to space limitations
I decided to run news in client mode only, with *** NO *** network groups
on the local system.

So, I started creating groups with:
	create newsgroup blah/server=servername/proto/inquire

and I found that some, but not all, articles were stored locally!

Is it necessary to specify SET /SERVED as well?  Or is that redundant?

Thanks in advance!!!
