Does anyone have any patches for the B news software that make it
act sensibly when the news file system runs out of inodes?
Currently it loses the incoming news batches and gets stuck in some
sort of loop generating error messages to errlog.  I would be happy
if it would just lock the news system until the file system is
repaired.

My thanks to AT&T and all the vendors who have given
me such an interesting file system problem :-(.
