Re: How do I use slrn? (fwd)

You are correct. I discovered that I can run slrn as root and it works,
but not as a user. That must be a permission problem somewhere.
Here are my permissions as compared to yours. (I had to change some of
them becaused I fiddled with it earlier):
drwxr-sr-x 5 news news 1024 Feb 12 17:51 slrnpull/
> ls -l /var/spool
> drwxr-sr-x 5 news news 1024 Feb 13 16:55 slrnpull

drwxr-xr-x 2 news news 1024 Feb 13 11:21 data/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root news 176351 Feb 13 11:21 log

Thanks for your trouble.
It least I can read it now although it is as root.
