Subject: DEREGISTER command not working.
Organization: Mississippi State Univ.
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1992 19:28:50 GMT

Hopefully, this is a simple problem with a simple solution.  I am using
ANU V6.0-3, VMS V5.5, and UCX V1.3 on a VAXstation 4000/60.  News only
runs from my SYSTEM account - I describe this problem in a previous post
and no one has any suggestions on it yet - but does run and comes up with
ALL newsgroups.  I tried doing a DEREGISTER command to remove certain
newsgroups from my SYSTEM account's NEWSRC file; however, the newsgroups
stay "registered" and I receive no error messages.  Does anyone have any
ideas on why this is happening?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, sorry if this has alreadybeen answered. I like ANU NEWS a whole lot,
BUT I would be able to use teh FASTLOAD option in a morefunctional way.
In 6.0-3, as well as the Alpha test version, I can't seem to register
new newsgroup while in FASTLOAD mode. Why is this? I am not going to
edit my RC file each time I want to add a newsgroup, I only rad
a fw myself but I am not the only user.
Is this a known bug, and if so, will it be fixed with 6.1? Also, I'd
like to know when 6.1 is expected, if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Date: 14 Apr 92 03:58:46 GMT
Organization: Mississippi State Univ.

Well, I now have MX V3.1A up and running fine, so I can turn to ANU V6.0-3.
My current problem is that I can run news from my SYSTEM account but not
from user accounts (i.e., non-privileged accounts).  So, privileges must
have something to do with the problem.  I checked all my protection flags
on all news files/directories.  They are currently set to World:RE, which
should allow anyone to read and execute them.  However, my test user
account receives the following message when I run news:

%RMS-E-FNF, file not found
%RMS-F-IFI, invalid internal file identifier (IFI) value.

I seem to remember seeing a similar problem before, which someone posted
on this newsgroup, so I am sorry if this is a FAQ.  I would appreciate
any ideas or hints.  Oh yes, I am on a VAXstation 4000/60 running VMS V5.5
and UCX V1.3.

Thanks in advance!

Hmm, I'm not so sure I understand this. Can you explain the use of the slash?
 
The / in the nodename field of the sys file means "as long as it hasn't
already been through the following systems already"
 
i.e.

means send everything to sys1 as long as the Path: header does not

Reply-To: SYNFUL@DRYCAS.CLUB.CC.CMU.EDU 

I'm playing with something new on my ANU NEWS system.  I've modified the
NNTP_SERVER.C file to, when it creates the NNTP*.BATCH files, set the
"scf" and "dlt" bits of the "fop" (file operations).  This means that
when the batch file is closed, it will be automatically submitted
(/DELETE).  I inserted at the beginning of each batch it creates:
    $ NEWS/NOSCREEN ADD FILE SYS$INPUT:/EXECUTE
    $ DECK/DOLLARS="*No*End*of*File"
(I also define SYS$BATCH to point to my NEWS_BATCH.)

My thought for the day is in comparing a roaming batch job which runs
periodically to see if there is any news versus running a batch job for
each news batch that comes in.  Theoretically, I may want to increase
the maximum size so that a large transfer can all fit in one batch job.

Any thoughts to this?

News, by default, will copy the file news_manager:newsrc.template to the user's
directory as newsrc.  I suspect that you have this file created, but have
incompatible attributes for users to copy.

I solved the problem by using a distribution file to the effect of:

with a news.sys entry like:

Something really simple - why bother with the VAX -> Sun feed?  Find an

and not have to deal with ANU at all.  And at the same time, you'll still
have lots of time for testing out the Sun on its new feed.

Subject: Deadlock (?) during skim/items
Date: 14 Apr 92 13:03:57 GMT
Article-I.D.: iccgcc.1992Apr14.080357.7791



 I'm running ANU-NEWS 6.0-3 on VMS 5.5 in a large cluster.  I am experiencing a
problem with the news item skim, where it waits hours before it begins the first
newsgroup.  It appears that there is a lock situation that sometimes occurs.
I've added informational messages to our news batch job to output time stamps,
and modified newsskim.c to put a timestamp on each line as it outputs the 
number of items expired (as you can see below).  You can that the batch job
begins at 8:00 pm, and doesn't begin skimming until 7:27 the next morning.
Does anyone know what it's waiting on?  Is there something I can do to clear
a lock, and get the thing moving?  It typically takes 8 hours to complete the 
skim (and I only skim/items on weekdays), so if it doesn't start until morning,
it's late into the day before items get added.

Second question:  Is it OK to run a second job with adds the batched items to
NEWS while the skim is running?

Here is the first few lines from the logfile which show the timestamps:

Perhaps this suggestion has already been added in a patch to 6.03, or is
incorporated in 6.1 alpha, but I just noticed that the new NEWSRC.* file
created from EXITing NEWS inherits the default protection on the directory, as
opposed to the default protection on the previous version of the file, which

     I had hoped that some of the problems I have had trying to start 
News would disappear once I was able to compile and link all the modules
locally.  Unfortunately, this is not the case.  On my initial run, the
licensing information appeared, and news.groups and news.items were

I receive the message 'no newsgroups created.'  I am running under an

when News starts up.  (I believe I have been told that something does 
appear stating 'Newsmgr enabled' or something to that effect.)  

     We are still running VMS 5.3.1.  Could this be part of the problem?
I know that some of the prvilege checking has changed in 5.4.  This has
been extremely frustrating because I have been trying for a while to get
ANUNews running.  If anyone can provide insight as to what is wrong I
would certainly appreciate it.

Subject: Bug in V6.1a3 regarding mail
Date: 9 Apr 92 21:56:22 GMT
Organization: Memphis State University

In ADD_TRANSFORM.C, there's an incorrect #ifdef statement; it should be #if.

Here's the differences:
************
File $1$DUA7:[ANU.NEWS61.NEWS_SRC]ADD_TRANSFORM.C;36
  104   #if UWO
  105   char *add_transform(s)	char *s;
******

  104   #ifdef	UWO
  105   char *add_transform(s)	char *s;
************

The problem is that there's a line in the NEWSSITE.H file "#define UWO 0"
which is supposed to mean it's off.  But, since it's defined, the code is
mistakenly altered.  This basically causes your NEWS_ADDRESS.CNF file to
be ignored, and the addresses passed on un-altered to VMS mail (which
doesn't know what to do with them).  This only happens when you try to
mail (reply) or the NNTP server tries to do carbon copies of posts.

In the file you are adding, there is a line like:

Newsgroups: xxx

where xxx is the name of a group.  This name must have a "." in it or
news will reject the item.  Just change the xxx to something that your
NEWS.SYS file accepts that has a "." in the name and things should
work a lot better. The headers for a checkgroups control message
should look something like:

Newsgroups: news.admin.ctl
Distribution: local
From: usenet@site
Subject: cmsg checkgroups
Control: checkgroups

group.name description...

When you add this to NEWS you will need to do:

I've got a problem with ANU that I haven't seen discussed here before...

We run in client only NNTP mode (6.0-3) and most of our users set FASTLOAD. Now
for the interesting part.  Yesterday, our news server node was having some 
problems and wasn't allowing NNTP connections.  The result is that everyone
that had FASTLOAD set and tried to read news during the problem, now has a
NEWSRC. with no registered groups.  This is VERY annoying!  Having to tell
some untold number of users that they are going to have to start over and
reregister, etc is bad.  I don't even want to think about having to restore
all of their NEWSRC's.  This problem can be easily demonstrated by putting a
bogus server in your NEWSRC and then trying to make a connection.  Has this
problem been addressed in the alpha test version???

Lynne,

     I  had the identical problem a number of weeks ago, consider your
     logical name definitions (this resolved our problems). The logicals
     in particular are:


             NEWS_DEVICE = "<disk>:[ANU.NEWS.]" (Don't forget the final period)

             NEWS_MANAGER_DEV = "<disk>:[NEWSMGR.] (likewise)

      You're welcome.

Hi

We are a new ANU-NEWS v6.0-3 site having just installed it.

I have the following problems in setting up my profile, these problems could
have been covered previously, in which case could some one mail me direct at my
internet address the solution.

1) setting up my profile to autoregister all new newsgroups with the command
   >SET PROFILE/NEWREGISTER
   does not automatically register new newsgroups. I have to manually register
   them.

2) Also setting the /LINE_EDIT does not work. Have to manually set it.


Answers can be mailed direct to me at IN%"raji@BOPRC.GOVT.NZ"

  Regards Raji....
