Harrington) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.bsdi.misc Subject: rnews setgid error/uucp feed Date: Fri, 7 Jul 1995 00:25:02 LOCAL Organization: The Denver Exchange, Inc. Lines: 14 Message-ID: <nwh.85.00155D1D@tde.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: tdewsnh.tde.com Keywords: rnews setgid uucp inn posting X-Newsreader: Trumpet for Windows [Version 1.0 Rev B final beta #4] I'm having a problem with a uucp feed that I'm trying to set up on BSD 2.0. Outbound news to the uucp machine works fine, however, when I try to post an article from the uucp machine, it sends it to the machine running innd ok, but when rnews tries to post the article (after receiving it via uucp), it returns 'rnews: cant setgid to 8 Operation not permitted'. Group 8 is news. I suspect it may have to do with permissions somewhere, but can't seem to find where. Any assistance anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. ************************************************************************* * Nathan W.
