It bit me too, and hung our news and uuxqt queues up for almost two days before I figured out (with help from outside) what was going on. It is a bug in 2.11 patch #6 which is fixed in patch #8. So, if you haven't already, immediately apply patches #7 and #8 for 2.11 news and remake news. I did that and the problem went away. --Greg -- UUCP: {hplabs, seismo, nbires, noao}!hao!woods CSNET: woods@ncar.csnet ARPA: woods%ncar@CSNET-RELAY.ARPA INTERNET: woods@hao.ucar.edu
