I use potato and have updated to the latest binaries at their site. I
use inn (not inn2) + suck to get some newsgroups, and I have realized
that sometimes (I couldn't determine how or when) when I locally post
some message, it doesn't spool (there's no spool file at
/var/spool/news/out.going), and when run the get-news script (always a
script the does it as "news" user), there are no errors, gets the
messages from the server but posts nothing. I have found that if I
restart inn, there's spool file and now works, but only until some time
the get-news script is run. I have tried to "touch
/var/spool/news/out.going/<file>, but though the file is created (and
the spool, and looking at the logs I see nothing interesting. And all
posted articles are stored locally, and I can read them perfectly, which
allows me to copy and paste to repost, but this has to be fixed.
What is exactly going wrong here?
TIA
