A/UX 2.0 has this problem, but thanks to the works of people on the Net (Alexis Rosen comes to mind), I have managed to stay one step ahead of this problem (most of the time). Now for my problem. I'm running c-news and rn on A/UX. Things seem to be going smoothly (now), except for a small problem which bothers me. Once news has been passed on to rnews and uuxqt has done it's job, a mail message is being sent back to my feed (for each batch) containing the following... uuxqt cmd (rnews ) status (exit 0, signal 0) Anyone have any ideas why, and possibly a way to stop it? -- Marcelo Gallardo ...!princeton!deadzone!marcelo Test and Evaluation Specialist marcelo@sparcwood.princeton.edu Princeton University marcelo@phoenix.princeton.edu Advanced Technologies and Applications (609) 258-5661
