Hello,
I post a few FAQ's to usenet on a monthly and quarterly basis. The
interval was up last night I received email stating that they were not
posted. Here is how the line used.
/usr/local/bin/post_faq -config /usr/local/zenez/config/config
post_faq is the posting program I have been using since 1994. This is
what I see.
gerberb@suse104:/usr/local/zenez/config> /usr/local/bin/post_faq -config
/usr/local/zenez/config/config

What I can not figure out is why it thinks that I am root posting when I
am not. I also ran the command after I logged into the machine copying
config.old config. and it gives me the same message. How do I stop the
check or get the check to be correct? I just need to get this to post
monthly. I would prefer to use my linux systems rather than the old SCO.
I still maintain these FAQ for those that have to use the OS's for their
applications.
Any idea?
Thanks,
