Message-ID: <23@astrovax.UUCP> Date: Sun, 18-Sep-83 20:53:57 EDT Article-I.D.: astrovax.23 Posted: Sun Sep 18 20:53:57 1983 Date-Received: Mon, 19-Sep-83 20:08:00 EDT Organization: Princeton Univ. Astrophysics Lines: 13 I think that there is a bug in the -x option of vnews (version 2.10.1). I can see in the directories that there is one article on our system in net.news.adm. However when I type: vnews -x -n net.news.adm it replies "No News". However, readnews -x -n net.news.adm finds the article. This article is also in net.news. vnews -x -n net.news skips over the article but finds it when one goes directly to the article with the `A' command. What gives? I suspect that it is probably a bug in the code which tries to prevent an article posted to multiple groups from being shown more than once. However there should be some way to override this feature.
