Hello,

I have installed debian at my home-site, and now I am trying to get a newsfeed
to my home.

I have set up all files and everything seems to be working, but when news
is coming in I see the following errors in syslog:

Aug  4 20:24:10 windmill innd: ME cant update_active nl.misc
Aug  4 20:24:10 windmill innd: ME cant symlink /var/spool/news/nl/misc/0 and nl/
newsgroups/0 File exists

and innd dies.

I have read something in the inn-faq about linux not being able to handle MMAP
update of the active-file, so I recompiled inn with active=READ, but this
doesn't help either.

Does anybody knows what can be happening here?

Thanks in advance,

Andre Koopal
