Your server in /etc/suck/get-news.conf must equal the server
name in /etc/news/hosts.nntp. Put localhost both of thes places
and it should work.
My Debian install's -almost- making sense now!
Just a few tiny things ... when I run get-news to download
Usenet via suck, I get this:
[snip]
Total articles to download: 929
1836135 Bytes received in 62 mins 54.05 secs, BPS = 486.5
Closed connection to news.mel.aone.net.au
Building INN Batch File
Downloaded Articles
You can hang up the modem now
Nothing sent -- leaving batchfile alone.
Local posting error
... and none of the articles appear in the local spool.
"Local posting error" isn't very informative! I've checked
/etc/suck/get-news.conf and it looks right. I'm not an innd guru
though, is there anything there I have to alter to let suck post my
news locally?
