I recently added a new hard disk to my system.  I partitioned it with Silver-
Lining and formatted it with newfs under A/UX.  It is mounted under /local.
My news directory is stored there and I noticed that the newsdaily script
was failing when it tried to do a find in /local/news.  I kept getting the
message:  getwd: cat't open ..

Now it seems that only news can't do this find.  My account can do it, as
can other users accounts, and of course, root.  What could this mean?

Any help is appreciated, especially if sent via email.
