On a DECstation 5000/200 running Ultrix4.1 I just installed nntp 1.5.10
and am having one minor problem.  I have the software set up so that it
is running is server mode, and have cnews to handle it once it gets
here.

The problem is while recieving news after I get to the 300K or get to 
the maximum number of articles in a batch it moves them into the
standard file.  At the same time it does a core dump.  It then continues
getting the next batch.  

Has anyone had this experience before???

I'm new to Ultrix, but have installed nntpd before under bsd.
