Hi, I am running fetchnews on SuSE Pro 8.0 to fetch news from newsgroups. I run fetchnews as user news. Sometimes trying to start fetchnews I am not able to because of a fetchnews' lock existing in /var/spool/locks. I searched manpages of leafnode and fetchnews but cannot find a hint why such a lock exist how to remove (e.g rm /var/spool/locks/kock.gid) Thank you for your help Oliver -- ... don't touch the bang-bang fruit
