     This is what caused the problems with 2.10.3 inews.  To test that it was
     indeed inews and not the networking software itself, we tried the following
     test;
    
    	/usr/hosts/hplabsc cat - < /tmp/pnews.$$

That doesn't mean diddly.  Cat doesn't try to seek on its input; inews
does.  It looks to me like your network software is to blame.

(I will resist putting in a plug for my company's network software here.)
