HELP (please ;-) I have installed nntp (the Dec-15 patch level), cnews, and nn nntp is working well (good news) cnews (for the most part) is working well. I am getting articles in my database The problem is this: When I use postnews (or :post from within nn), I get the following error -- Error message begins relaynews: error writing `/usr/lib/news/history', probably the disk filled (Error 0) Your response has been saved in ~/dead.letter -- Error message ends I have checked everything I know to check (permission on /usr/lib/news/history is 666/news/news, relaynews is 6775/news/news, etc) I have discovered that this line is generated via the function prfulldisk in the source file msgs.c. But, I cannot understand from where relaynews calls it or why it is doing so Any help would be appreciated. While on a related subject: how do I set up my sys file so that only articles that have been posted will be batched up for nntpsend'ing to my nntp server? I don't want to use the F command in the sys file (at least not alone) as that simply causes all articles I receive to be spooled (their full path name, anyway ;-) and that is NOT what I want Please feel free to call with friendly advice!!! -- +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Steve Scott | Internet: sscott@mot.com | | Fort Worth Research and Development Center | UUCP: csccat!camdev!sscott | | Cellular Infrastructure Group | Internal: TX14/1D | | Radio Telephone Systems Group | Voice: (817) 232-6317 | | Motorola, Inc. | Fax: (817) 232-6081 | | The opinions contained herein are STRICTLY my own | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
