Hi,
For the past several days, INN has been corrupting the active file. It is
not destroying any data, simply appending large numbers of nulls to the end
of it, which is confusing Tin and other newsreaders.
I have throttled the server, edited the nulls out of the active file, and
resumed it. It seems to be a temporary solution as the problem will
reappear in a few hours.
I am running FreeBSD 2.2SNAP.
Any suggestions very much appreciated!
Thanks,
John Goerzen
