I just put the latest c-news on an RS/6000. It seems to work fine, execept that I had to make relaynews setuid to root. When I had it set uid to news, my posts would come back to me with the message: relaynews: recursive loop setting ids (Only the owner or a privileged user can p erform the operation.) I have setnewsids installed with setuid root as it should. I suppose I shouldn't complain since it seems to work, but I don't like too many setuid root programs lying around, and all the articles are showing up in /usr/spool/news owned by root. If you have any experience with c-news, I'd like to hear from you. Gary Kakazu kakazu@theory.tn.cornell.edu
