Cox) Newsgroups: news.software.nntp Subject: NNTPD spawn error Summary: nntpd spawn error for rnews and inews Message-ID: <28198@pearl.s1.gov.s1.gov> Date: 26 Jun 91 17:07:09 GMT Sender: news@s1.gov.s1.gov Followup-To: pcc@s1.gov Organization: Lawrence Livermore National Labs, Livermore CA Lines: 20 Nntp-Posting-Host: kadima.s1.gov I am a new "news" administrator. I have the following setup : - A SUN IPC (OS 4.1.1) running bnews 2.11, and nntp 1.5.11 . - Various Sun servers running 'rrn' and nntp 1.5.11 (mini-inews). My problem is that I get the following console errors on the IPC, but I don'tseem to having any problems reading or posting from the machines running 'rrn'. Here are the errors: nntpd[27626]: spawn: /usr/lib/news/inews exit status 1 nntpd[29333]: spawn: /usr/bin/rnews exit status 1 My question is: should I be woried about these ? If so what should I do ( I am currently reading thru source) ? If not, Why not ? -Phil- -- Philip C. Cox Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory pcc@s1.gov
