I ran into something like that myself, after assuming that nnmaster would expire news when it saw they where gone. Either I misread the docs, or it just ain't so, none-the-less, you can get nn to expire by cronning up nnadmin with: nnadmin =EYW at some point after Cnews has expired... and that IS in the docs! :-) -- \ Bob Smith \ Path: ...uunet.uu.net!wang.com!snuffy.uucp!bob \ 835 Mammoth Rd. \ Address: bob@snuffy.uucp \ Dracut, MA. 01826 \ Work/voice mail: +1 508 670-6712
