I have my machine on a dialup ppp linuk until I get back to school in a week, at which point it'll be full-connected all the time. Lately I've been getting the "Daily Usenet Report" (I suppose generated someplace in cron.daily) which _always_ has errors like these:
Server status: No innd.pid file; did server die? Can't send "mode" command (sendto failure) No such file or directory. Questions: 1) What's generating these? I can't find an "inn" entry in /etc/cron.daily 2) Is there some way to quell these until I get back to school and have a real news connection? If I run the server from here, it dials my modem all the time trying to get news, and ties up the phone line ... 3) When I _do_ decide to run inn, should I run it from rc.boot or from one of the runlevel rc.* directories? thanks in advance, Will ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cis.udel.edu/~lowe/ For PGP Public Key, visit my website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
