Hi,
  I am running into a problem with "postnews" or "follow-up" on rn.
  After I succesfully post the news article, it came back and display the
  following message:

			"Echo" failed
			Is a directory

  Does anybody know what it meant?
  It only happens on the nntp news server node. I have no problem on the
  nntp client node.

  The server is running Bnews 2.11.18 and nntp 1.5 patch 39.
  I recall seeing it somewhere but can't quite remember how I fixed it.

  Can anybody help ?
