I sent a message several days ago but after I sent it news was down
for a day, so I may have missed a response. I will repost my question.

We have recently upgraded to B news version 2.11.  We are a USG site running
UNIX system 5.

The error message we are getting is:

Cannot open /usr/lib/news/history (r): No such file or directory

I have monitored the news directory and news is not keeping a history file.
We do have a history.d directory but no history file.

If anyone has any ideas on this, I would appreciate any help.

Thanks.
