I have a home system (an amiga if that matters) that I batch a few amiga related newsgroups to each day. The problem is that I want to stop sending one of the newsgroups (comp.sys.amiga.games ) to my home system and edited the sys file to remove any reference to that group. Ah that was easy - but NO the group is still being batched to me each day. I MUST be missing something. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. My current sys file is: # my office system syteke:world,comp,\ news,eunet,bnet,to.syteke:: # # My backbone news feed ub4b:world,comp,news,eunet,bnet,to.ub4b:: # # my home system belami:world,comp.sys.amiga.hardware,comp.sys.amiga.tech,comp.sys.amiga,\ comp.sources.amiga,comp.binaries.amiga,comp.sys.att,\ to.belami:F:/usr/spool/batch/belami I am sure I have forgotten something very obvious. -- Jim Sanchez | jim@syteke.be (PREFERRED) Hughes LAN Systems | OR uunet!mcsun!ub4b!syteke!jim Brussels Belgium | OR {sun,hplabs}!sytek!syteke!jim Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
