When we received OSx 4.4c there was a change to the news
facility with a new file called mailpaths. In this
file there is a definition for setting up the 'backbone'
site. No matter how we setup the backbone site, every week
we get a message in the weekly news report that says:

   Can't find backbone in /usr/lib/news/mailpaths

Why do we get this message? We have tried commenting out
this line but to no avail. The response back from our
Pyramid supplier is that Pyramid says this is public
domain software and they don't support it and don't have an answer?

Does anyone know why the following backbone doesn't work:


        backbone          mnetor!uunet!%s

Can this line be disabled?
