The proper syntax for a sys entry for saving a newgroup is: SOURCES:ra,fa,net,wny,ont,mod,usa,na,!ra.all,!fa.all,!net.all,!wny.all,!ont.all,!mod.all,!usa.all,!na.all,net.sources:B:/usr/lib/news/savesource /util/lbgm This line is to ONLY saves net.sources (and net.sources.all implicitly). I have made provisions in my entry for a bunch of local distribution lists also. I would suggest setting up a form distribution header for the front of all your selective group feeds. This is not a bug, it is a feature. -- //Z\\ James M. Ziobro Ziobro.Henr@Xerox.ARPA {rochester,amd,sunybcs,allegra}!rocksvax!z
