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 Posting ou8faq (posting interval expired). inews: article was posted by "root@zenez.com" and you are "gerberb@suse104.zenez.com" inews: article not posted /usr/bin/inews -h exited with non-zero status posting ou8faq. Skipping ou8faqqt (scheduled to be posted on or around Jul 29, 2008). Posting scoprogfaq (posting interval expired). inews: article was posted by "root@zenez.com" and you are "gerberb@suse104.zenez.com" inews: article not posted /usr/bin/inews -h exited with non-zero status posting scoprogfaq. Skipping scoprogfaqqt (scheduled to be posted on or around Jul 29, 2008). 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?
