Bug in the INN-2.2.2-3 Package from Red Hat Linux 6.2 Serverinstallation?

[Christian J. Schrattenthaler]

Hi!

I have a Red Hat Linux 6.2 Serverinstallation (STANDARD), and I want to use
the INND-Service (only for lokal Newsgroups!). All other services (Apache,
WU-FTPD, Sendmail, Majordomo usw.) works fine!

The file "/etc/rc.d/init.d/innd" doesn't work! I had to Remark the following
lines:
---
# Check that networking is up.
if [ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ]
then
 exit 0
fi
---

and I had to change the line "[ -d /usr/lib/news ] || exit 0" into "[ -d
/var/lib/news ] || exit 0".

Now the INND can start on bootup! But, this was a standard installation,
what is wrong? Is it an error from me, or from Red Hat? How can I correct
the Script, to work complete correctly?

Now I get some error-messages in the news-log-files, I can't find this
messages in the INN-F.A.Q. or on the old HOWTO-files. Ther is no 100%
working Information about the INND of Red Hat 6.2 - WHY?

After the bootup I get the following error.log's:

NEWS.NOTICE:

such file or directory
Nov 16 09:59:06 linuxserver innd: SERVER bad_newsfeeds no feeding sites

Please tell me, what is wrong on my system, so that i can correct the
problem with innd.

Information: My server is permanently connected to the internet (cable). It
also works as router for the computers in my internal network. I have a
static IP and a Domain-Name registered for this IP.

Thanks!

Greetings
Christian
