Having annoyed the news-reading world already with a silly question re: the
NNTP daemon (and smacking himself for not KILLING THE INETD AND RESTARTING IT,
instead of blindly xstrusting kill -HUP), our dashing hero moves on to more 
focused sillyness.  The question at hand:  Why does the NNTP daemon refuse all
POST commands with a
"441 - cannot create temporary file."
error?  He has created the user 'usenet' and made sure that /tmp is world - 
writable.  What more need be done?  Tune in next time, dear readers, to see if
some guru has solved our hero's problem.  How's that for a cliff-hanger ending?

;-)
