Thanks. I run nntpsend (which comes with nntp), but leave entries in batchparms for that site with a maximum queuelen of zero ie: cs 1750000 0 nntpbat cat vianntp This reports the queuelength for each run of sendbatches. [ The nntpbat/vianntp scripts are what I used to use to run batched nntp ] [ from sendbatches. It works but it's not wonderful. ] [ If you're interested in that please mail me. ] -- \/ato.
