Greetings,

Can some one tell me how to enter the nntpsend and news.daily? This is what
I have done logged in as root.

# su news
$ vi news

Created the file with the following contents:

7,17,27,37,47,57 * * * * /bin/su news /usr/local/news/newslib/bin/nntpsend
43 2 * * * /bin/su news /usr/local/news/newslib/bin/news.daily delayrm
expireover

^D out of the news account
# /usr/init.d/cron stop
# /usr/init.d/cron start

My articles do not seem to be expiring hence news.daily is not being run.
 What has everyone else done for this?
