With the various fixes (changes of 1 << PRV$V to PRV$M, copy v5maildef.h, etc.), I got everything compiled, and NEWS seems to work. However, when I try to connect to the server (via TELNET/port=119, NNTP_FEED, or using the NNTP_CLIENT), the connection opens, the disk drive defined as NEWS_ROOT is accessed a few times, and the connection closes. I have checked the logicals, etc., all day, but I can't find anything wrong (they are as close to my V5.7 settings on our 8530 as possible.) I set DEBUG=1 in nntp_tcpcmu.c, but that simply hangs up, creating but not writing anything to the log file. Any suggestions? Does anyone have this configuration of products running? Where to go from here? Thanks for any assistance or pointers, Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Roseman Lehigh University Computing Center LUSGR@VAX1.CC.Lehigh.EDU
