Symbolic links are for WIMPS!!!!! :-) Actually, they fit in really well with this bumper sticker that a friend made for me: Better Living Through Complexity And a common refrain around here is, "We have no shame - we use symlinks." :-) What I did is put the nntp-ified inews in lib/inews and the genuine 2.11.14 inews in lib/local/inews. When I compiled nntpd I told it that inews was in lib/local/inews. What do you do about posting from the server machine? Did you compile all your other news software so as to know that the real inews is in lib/local/inews? --Karl
