Message-ID: <571@oce-rd1.oce.nl> Date: 11 Jan 88 19:59:01 GMT Reply-To: hls@oce-rd1.oce.nl (Harry Schreurs) Organization: Oce-Nederland bv, Venlo, the Netherlands Lines: 18 References: Regarding the problems some people have administering News, I wonder why News doesn't allow me to use symbolic links. Instead of running expire to create the necessary free space, I would like to add some extra disk space to my spool directory. Just move a high volume newsgroup to another partition and replace the directory by an appropriate symbolic link.
