Hi, INSTALL.run says at one point. #!/bin/sh # snntpd needs to find snstore if it is to accept news postings. # Replace BINDIR with the real value of BINDIR from the Makefile. PATH=BINDIR export PATH # Enable posting? Can also do this from /etc/hosts.allow POSTING_OK=1; export POSTING_OK # yes # No: unset POSTING_OK # Run snntpd, and log errors in the system log: BINDIR/snntpd 2>&1 | /usr/bin/logger -p news.info # Run snntpd, and log errors in a log file: # BINDIR/snntpd 2>>/where/you/want/the/snntpd.log # End of wrapper script. This is misleading because PATH cannot be set to just BINDIR as POST requires cat, etc. I guess it should be PATH=$PATH:BINDIR. Cheers, Ralph. PS. Still no replies from the list. I can see there are some subscribers other than me. Would one of you just say `ping' so I know this is reaching somebody. Is `sn' active or am I wasting my time getting to grips with it?
