Hi all,
Problem statement:
I am running the most recent version of CNews on a AlphaStation 200 4/166
under DUNIX 3.2c, and the system seems to be in some distress. However
I've nothing to compare this against, so maybe this is how News servers
behave all the time. If anyone could confirm whether they are seeing
similar symptoms or a completely different pattern, I would be very
grateful.
Summary:
Thanks to "Craig I. Hagan" <hagan_at_cih.com>
Mike Iglesias<iglesias_at_draco.acs.uci.edu>
John Stoffel <jfs_at_fluent.com>
for replying.
The universal suggestion was to dump Cnews and use INN instead. We will
do that ASAP and meanwhile try to keep the service running on Cnews.
Interestingly one respondent said "use Advfs" and another said "advfs --
very bad karma ...". Having seen some of the traffic on this list about
Advfs I will stick with ufs.
