I hate to hang my stupidity out for all to see, but I really do want this to work! It is so tantalizingly close, but I am just missing something. I went to look in /etc/suck/Msgs, where suck used to stash downloaded messages, and nothing was there. Instead, they are now being being stuck in /var/spool/news/Msgs. suck's debug messages are going into /var/spool/news/debug.suck. Obviously, suck now thinks stuff needs to go in /var/spool/news. How do I get the articles from Msgs into cnews? I gather that cnews will use directories like /var/spool/news/linux/debian/user to hold the articles, so how do I get lmove to put them there and then cnews to recognize them? I imagine it must be either a suck or lmove switch, but which? Dave -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
